Trump threatens to destroy Iranian infrastructure over Strait of Hormuz attacks, rattling oil and crypto markets

President Trump announced a new red line against Iran, vowing to obliterate critical civilian infrastructure, such as bridges or power plants, for every shot Tehran takes at vessels in the Strait of Hormuz. These threats to destroy Iranian infrastructure have rattled oil and crypto markets, as the situation puts 20% of the global oil supply at risk. The administration intends to respond proportionally to any attacks against shipping within the strategic waterway to deter further aggression.
