Trump issues final Iran ultimatum
Escalating his rhetoric to unprecedented levels, President Trump warned Iranian leadership that failure to meet an 8 p.m. Tuesday deadline would result in the systematic destruction of the nation's bridges and power plants.
The administration dismissed a recent Iranian ceasefire proposal as 'not good enough,' insisting that freedom of navigation through the Strait of Hormuz is a non-negotiable prerequisite for peace.
Amidst these threats, the President detailed a complex rescue operation involving over 150 aircraft to retrieve a downed U.S. airman, an event he characterized as 'militarily one of the best Easters.' Legal experts and international observers have raised concerns that the proposed targeting of civilian infrastructure could constitute war crimes under international law.
