According to a report in the Wall Street Journal on Tuesday, April 21, 2026, half of the 1,000 drone strikes against Saudi Arabia were from within Iraqi territory.

“Reopen or Be Wiped Out”: Donald Trump Threatens Total Destruction of Iran’s Infrastructure in Hours

White House ultimatum gives Tehran hours to reopen Strait of Hormuz or face sweeping U.S. military strikes on bridges and power plants. Trump Drops Hammer on Iran: Bridges and Power Plants Face Total Destruction in Four Hours


Kurdish Policy Analysis

President Donald Trump issued a blunt ultimatum straight from the White House: Iran has until 8 p.m. Eastern tonight to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and cut a deal curbing its nuclear and missile threats, or America’s military will wipe out every bridge and power plant in the country by midnight Tuesday.
In a no-nonsense press conference, Trump laid it out clear: “We have a plan... every bridge in Iran will be decimated by 12 o’clock tomorrow night, where every power plant in Iran will be out of business — burning, exploding and never to be used again. Complete demolition... over a period of four hours if we wanted to. We don’t want that to happen.”
The stakes are simple. Iran’s closure of the vital Strait has choked global oil flows, driving up prices and threatening the world economy. Trump demands it reopen fully, along with real limits on Tehran’s weapons programs. No more games, no more delays.
This isn’t empty talk. With U.S. forces already engaged after weeks of conflict, including the downing of an American jet and rescue of its crew, Trump made clear the option is ready. He dismissed hand-wringing over civilian impacts, noting the Iranian regime’s own choices have brought this pressure.
Critics whine about “war crimes,” but Trump’s message is straightforward: strength brings peace. The mullahs can end this fast by complying, or watch their infrastructure crumble in hours. America’s military superiority is unmatched, and this president isn’t afraid to use it to protect U.S. interests and free the seas.
The ball is in Iran’s court. Deadline tonight. The world is watching whether Tehran finally says uncle or forces America’s hand. Peace through strength means exactly that.
