Donald Trump threatens Iran with infrastructure strikes amid ongoing military conflict

United States President Donald Trump has issued fresh threats to strike Iranian energy infrastructure unless a peace agreement is reached, warning that the military campaign will intensify. As of April 2, 2026, air strikes have resulted in the destruction of a major bridge on the highway connecting Tehran to Karaj, with reports of civilian injuries. Trump has shared videos of the damage via Truth Social, urging Iran to negotiate before it is too late. Conversely, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and the Khatam al-Anbiya headquarters have condemned the strikes as a sign of American failure, vowing that the war will continue. Iran maintains that its strategic military capabilities remain intact and has threatened retaliatory actions against U.S. and Israeli interests. International concerns persist regarding the safety of energy transit through the Strait of Hormuz, with oil prices rising following the escalation. While Trump claims the conflict is near its conclusion, Iranian officials suggest a long-term commitment to defense, with millions of citizens reportedly ready to mobilize.
