President Trump Issues Ultimatum to Strike Iranian Power Plants and Bridges
U.S. President Donald Trump warned on April 19, 2026, that the United States would knock out critical Iranian infrastructure, specifically power plants and bridges, if Tehran continues to reject a proposed peace deal. The ultimatum was delivered via social media as diplomatic negotiations in Islamabad remain at a standstill. International leaders have urged restraint, warning that such strikes would have catastrophic humanitarian consequences for the civilian population and likely trigger a wider, more destructive regional conflict.
