Iran dismisses Trump's Tuesday ultimatum to reopen Straight of Hormuz
President Trump set a Tuesday deadline, stating on social media that the U.S. would bomb power plants and bridges if Iran does not reopen the Straight of Hormuz, a critical shipping channel that is used to transport much of the world's oil supply. Iranian officials dismissed the threat as "reckless" and suggested Iran might close another channel near the Red Sea if the U.S. escalates attacks.
