( Apr. 4, 2026 / JNS ) U.S. President Donald Trump on Saturday reminded the Iranians of his ultimatum to open the Strait of Hormuz by April 6, or else “all hell will reign down” on them.

“Remember when I gave Iran ten days to MAKE A DEAL or OPEN UP THE HORMUZ STRAIT. Time is running out—48 hours [are left],” Trump wrote on social media platform Truth Social.

Trump on Friday warned that U.S. forces have not yet “started destroying what’s left in Iran,” vowing more attacks on critical infrastructure following airstrikes that destroyed the country’s tallest bridge.
