Trump told Fox News this week that without a diplomatic breakthrough, &quot;next week it gets really bad for them&#8230; next week comes the power plants. Next week comes the bridges.&quot;<br \/>\nIn a symbolically major moment, Mojtaba Khamenei \u2014 who quietly became Iran&#8217;s Supreme Leader after his father&#8217;s assassination \u2014 issued his first major strategic and security declaration since taking power, released just after the conclusion of his father&#8217;s multi-day state funeral. The statement doesn&#8217;t explicitly name the US or Israel, but it follows Trump&#8217;s own warning of &quot;overwhelming&quot; retaliation if Iran targets American officials.<br \/>\nMeanwhile, Iran&#8217;s IRGC Navy claims it fired warning shots to stop a vessel attempting to use an &quot;unauthorized route&quot; through the Strait of Hormuz, accusing multiple ships of ignoring Iran&#8217;s designated shipping lanes at the urging of &quot;foreign powers.&quot;<br \/>\n\u26a0\ufe0f In this video:<\/p>\n<p>Iran&#8217;s newest direct threat to &quot;crush&quot; targets<br \/>\nThe new Supreme Leader&#8217;s first major statement, explained<br \/>\nWhat&#8217;s happening at the Strait of Hormuz right now<br \/>\nWhat Trump&#8217;s own threats mean for what comes next<\/p>\n<p>#Iran #Trump #MiddleEast #StraitOfHormuz #Geopolitics #BreakingNews<\/p>\n<p>Want to create live streams like this?
