US President Donald Trump
On Sunday, Iran responded strongly to US President Donald Trump over his profanity-laced “Tuesday threat,” saying his “reckless moves” were dragging Washington toward a “living hell.”The sharp response comes at a time when Tehran accused Trump of escalating tensions and pushing the region towards dangerous instability as the conflict in West Asia continues to escalate.In a post on the“Your reckless moves are dragging the United States into a living hell for every family, and our entire region will burn because you insist on following Netanyahu’s orders,” he wrote. “Make no mistake: you will gain nothing through war crimes. The only real solution is to respect the rights of the Iranian people and end this dangerous game.”
Trump warning about Strait of Hormuz
Ghalibaf’s statement came after Trump issued a strong warning to Iran, demanding that it reopen the strategically vital Strait of Hormuz, a major global oil shipping route, and threatening severe military action if Tehran fails to comply.
In a post on Truth Social, Trump wrote: “Tuesday will be Power Plant Day and Bridge Day, all in one day in Iran. There will never be anything like it!!! Open the damn strait, you lunatic, or you’ll live in hell – just watch! Thank God.”Earlier, Trump also gave a 48-hour ultimatum, saying: “Remember when you gave Iran ten days to make a deal or open the Strait of Hormuz. Time is running out – 48 hours before all hell breaks loose on them.
Glory be to God! President Donald J. Trump.
Iran rejects the threat and the army issues a sharp rebuke
Iran strongly rejected Trump’s warning, and senior military officials also responded in strong terms. General Ali Abdullah Aliabadi from Iran’s Khatam al-Anbia Central Headquarters described the US President’s statements as “helpless, nervous, unbalanced, and stupid behavior.”Echoing Trump’s threatening tone, he added, “The simple meaning of this message is that the gates of hell will open for you,” according to Agence France-Presse.The exchange comes amid rising tensions following reports that Iranian air defenses shot down a US F-15 fighter jet earlier this week, prompting US forces to launch a high-risk rescue operation.In a separate post, Trump claimed that US forces had succeeded in rescuing an injured crew member from deep within Iranian territory, describing it as a rare and dangerous mission.The latest exchange comes amid an escalating situation in West Asia where the United States, Israel and Iran are embroiled in a conflict that began on February 28.
