'Next Week Comes Bridges, Power Plants': Donald Trump Says US Strikes on Iran to Escalate in Three Days

U.S. forces hit Iranian military targets and resumed a naval blockade as Iran launched missiles and drones toward countries hosting American troops.

  • On Tuesday, President Donald Trump threatened to destroy Iranian power plants and bridges in a Fox News interview, vowing to target energy infrastructure unless the nation agrees to negotiate.
  • The threats follow four consecutive days of military exchanges between The United States and Iranian forces, further undermining a fragile interim agreement reached in June after months of fighting.
  • CENTCOM resumed a naval blockade at 4 p.m. Eastern Time on Tuesday, targeting Iranian military capabilities near the Strait to hold the nation responsible for attacks endangering commercial shipping.
  • Iranian state television reported that at least 30 civilians were killed in recent days, with more than 260 wounded following an American strike on a 388th Mechanized Infantry Brigade barracks in southeastern Iran.
  • The Geneva Conventions prohibit targeting "objects indispensable to civilian survival," yet American officials have previously boasted about following through on such threats against civilian infrastructure.
