Trump Threatens to Bomb Iranian Infrastructure Over Strait Threats

US President Donald Trump issued a fresh warning to Iran on Wednesday, threatening strikes on the country's infrastructure if Tehran targets vessels in the Strait of Hormuz. The threat specifically mentioned hitting bridges or power plants.

The statement escalates already heightened tensions between the US and Iran, raising the risk of supply disruptions in a key global oil chokepoint. Market participants are watching for any follow-up actions that could affect crude oil prices and risk sentiment in forex markets.
