Trump Issues New Strike Threats as Iran Proposes Strait Conditions

Tensions between the United States and Iran reached a new peak on Sunday as President Donald Trump issued a final warning ahead of a Monday deadline. In a social media post, the President stated that failure to comply would result in strikes on Iranian power plants and bridges, characterizing the potential operation as "Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day." Iran's military responded via state media, vowing "forceful" retaliation against any strikes targeting civilian infrastructure, while simultaneously floating a conditional proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz to maritime traffic. On the military front, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed the killing of the head of commerce at the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) oil headquarters. This unit is responsible for generating billions of dollars in annual revenue used to fund Iran's security apparatus. Additionally, U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) released footage of strikes targeting Iranian drones, following a series of weekend operations that reportedly hit air defense and ballistic systems in Tehran. The conflict continues to disrupt regional stability and global logistics. Russia criticized the U.S. "language of ultimatums," urging immediate de-escalation. Meanwhile, Israel’s flagship carrier, El Al, has suspended all flight operations until April 18. Reports from Haifa indicate casualties following conflict-related incidents, as the humanitarian and economic toll of the standoff expands.
