The US attacked military targets across Iran’s Kharg Island as President Donald Trump reiterated his threat to unleash a massive new bombing campaign if Tehran doesn’t strike a deal to end the war.

Donald Trump has threatened to strike Iranian power plants and bridges. Iran has dismissed Mr Trump's ultimatum. On Sunday, the US president once again set a new deadline to late Tuesday for Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.

The president's justifications have shifted repeatedly, and claims of victory have grown theatrical as the results have grown less convincing.

President Trump's deadline for Iran to reach a deal to end the war or face punishing strikes on its bridges and power plants is less than 24 hours away.

If the level of destruction in the Persian Gulf and gas prices here at home aren’t high enough for you yet, just give it a few days.

President Trump renewed threats of attacks on Iran if the country does not agree to a deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz by his Tuesday night deadline. The warnings came on Monday as the president gave more details on the rescue of a missing American airman shot down over Iran on Friday.

U.S. President Donald Trump said Monday that the United States is prepared to destroy much of Iran's civilian infrastructure by midnight Tuesday.

Iran rejected a proposed ceasefire as Donald Trump ramped up his threats less than two days before the US president’s ultimatum to re-open the Strait of Hormuz or face further attacks on civilian infrastructure.
