Trump asserted that “our military… hasn’t even started destroying what’s left in Iran. Bridges next, then electric power plants. [The] new regime leadership knows what has to be done, and has to be done, fast”. He later asserted that “with a little more time, we can easily open the Hormuz Strait, take the oil and make a fortune. It would be a ‘gusher’ for the world”. Citing Trump’s statements, an Iranian spokesperson said “if these threats are acted upon, the powerful armed forces of Islamic Iran will target all assets of the Israeli regime and the U.S. in the fields of fuel, energy, economic centres and power plans – both in the region and in the occupied territories”.
