US President Donald Trump has issued a 48-hour ultimatum for Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, threatening severe consequences, including the potential obliteration of Iran's power plants.
In response, Iran has warned of retaliation against US and Israeli energy infrastructure, indicating a potential escalation in regional tensions that could disrupt energy flows.
The Strait of Hormuz is a critical chokepoint for global oil transportation, and any conflict in this area could have substantial implications for energy markets and supply chains.
