US President Donald Trump claims that the US could increase the intensity of its strikes against Iran 20 times if Tehran blocks oil shipments through the Strait of Hormuz.
“If Iran does something to stop oil shipments through the Strait of Hormuz, the US will hit them 20 times harder than they have hit them so far“, the White House chief said in Truth Social.
He also suggested that the US would “attack soft targets“, after which Iran would be “virtually unable to recover“.
“I hope and pray that this does not happen. "This will be a gift from the United States to China and all countries that use the Strait of Hormuz," he insisted.
