Where it stands

On July 22, Trump threatened to destroy Iranian bridges or power plants, including in Tehran, for each attack on ships in the Strait of Hormuz. The UN called the threat unacceptable, experts warned attacks on civilian infrastructure could be war crimes, and Iran vowed an “eye for an eye”; the report does not say the threat was withdrawn or carried out.
