US Will Bomb Bridges, Power Plants If Iran Shoots At Ships In Hormuz: Trump

During a recent statement, Donald Trump outlined a strict military policy regarding maritime security and Iranian aggression. He asserted that any attack on U.S. ships using missiles, rockets, or drones would trigger an immediate and significant kinetic response.

The proposed retaliation would focus on critical infrastructure within Iran, specifically targeting facilities near the capital city. Trump noted that destroying bridges and power plants would serve as a direct consequence for any interference with naval operations in the strategic waterway.

Tensions in the Strait of Hormuz remain a focal point of international security, as the passage is a vital corridor for global oil shipments. The former president emphasized that the specific method of attack by Iran would not change the severity of the American military response.
