Trump issues final Iran ultimatum

President Donald Trump has issued a final ultimatum to Tehran, warning that major power plants and bridges will be targeted if a deal is not reached by his 8 p.m. Tuesday deadline.

The threat comes as Iran rejects a temporary 45-day ceasefire proposal, demanding a lasting cessation of hostilities and an end to U.S. sanctions.

Military officials report that U.S. forces are currently conducting the highest volume of strikes since the conflict began.

International legal experts have raised concerns that targeting civilian infrastructure could constitute a war crime, a charge the President has dismissed.
