He announced that any Iranian attack-by missile, rocket, drone, or other weapons-will result in the U.S. bombing and destroying a bridge or power plant, including those near Tehran. <\/p>\n<p>Following this declaration, U.S. forces launched their 11th consecutive night of strikes on Iranian military and logistical sites, targeting operations centers, maritime capabilities, aircraft hangars, drone storage, and other military infrastructure to reduce Iran\u2019s ability to threaten commercial shipping.<\/p>\n<p>Iran has responded by refusing to be intimidated. An Iranian military official warned that if the U.S. follows through on its threats, Iran would retaliate by attacking regional infrastructure and energy facilities vital to U.S. interests. Iran also claimed it has halted maritime traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, especially via the southern route encouraged by the U.S. to avoid Iranian tolls. Additionally, Iran reportedly targeted the island of Larak with a missile after a U.S. missile strike.<\/p>\n<p>Despite ongoing tensions and Iran\u2019s aggressive posture, the Strait remains open for commercial navigation, with U.S. forces facilitating the transit of hundreds of ships and large amounts of crude oil. The situation underscores heightened tensions in the region, with threats and counter-threats impacting regional security and international trade.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><br \/>\n<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-\/\/W3C\/\/DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional\/\/EN\" \"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/TR\/REC-html40\/loose.dtd\"><br \/>\n<?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><html><body><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>President Donald Trump said Wednesday that Iran\u2019s infrastructure will pay a price every time Iran attacks a ship in the Strait of Hormuz.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFrom this point forward, any time the Islamic Republic of Iran shoots at a ship in the Strait of Hormuz, whether it be by Missile, Rocket, Drone, or any other device or weapon, the United States will bomb and destroy ONE BRIDGE OR POWER PLANT, including those located next to, or in, the Capital City of Tehran,\u201d Trump posted on <a href=\"https:\/\/truthsocial.com\/@realDonaldTrump\/posts\/116963738416841583\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>On Tuesday night, U.S. forces conducted the 11th consecutive night of attacks on Iranian targets, U.S. Central Command <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/CENTCOM\/status\/2079727235431371205\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">posted on X<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCENTCOM assets targeted Iranian military operations centers, maritime capabilities, aircraft hangars, drone storage facilities, and military logistics infrastructure to further degrade Iran\u2019s ability to threaten commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz,\u201d the post said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOver the past three months, Iran has attacked more than 30 commercial vessels transiting the international waterway vital for regional and global trade.
