Trump widens threat to all of Iran's power plants and bridges as his deadline for a deal approaches

President Donald Trump has expanded his threat against Iran to include all power plants and bridges as his Tuesday ultimatum approaches. This comes after Tehran on Monday rejected a 45-day ceasefire proposal, demanding a permanent end to the war. Trump insists that Iran must open the Strait of Hormuz to all shipping traffic. Israel has increased pressure by attacking a major petrochemical plant and killing key Iranian commanders. Asked if he was concerned about accusations of war crimes, Trump responded, “No, not at all.” Negotiations continue with mediators from Egypt, Pakistan, and Turkey attempting to broker a ceasefire.
