Summary
Whether the Iranian leadership will give way and agree to negotiations is unclear. US President Donald Trump has once again threatened Iran with attacks on the country’s civilian infrastructure. Trump had already threatened Iran with the destruction of all bridges and power plants in April, but then did not do so.
Furthermore, The aim of the attacks was to prevent Iranian attacks on merchant ships in the Strait of Hormuz. Trump said the ceasefire ended last week. Next week, all power plants and bridges would be destroyed, “unless they come to the negotiating table and negotiate,” he said in an interview with the US channel Fox News.
In addition, The US military accuses Iran of attacking seven merchant ships last week. This was apparently done without coordination with Iran, whose leadership claims control of the Strait of Hormuz. Nevertheless, there were always new attacks.
Moreover, The attacks would continue "until I say that it is enough.".
