Iran Warns US of Hormuz 'Red Line,' Says It Will Retaliate to Trump's Strike Threats The Strait of Hormuz has become a flashpoint in the escalating tensions between the United States and Iran, with both sides engaged in a game of diplomatic chicken.
The latest developments have seen Iran warning that it will "crush" key targets in the Middle East if US President Donald Trump follows through on his threats to target Iranian infrastructure.
The rhetoric from Tehran has been stark, with a spokesperson for Iran's top military command stating that any US attack would be met with a crushing response, leaving no trace of the country's infrastructure intact.
