Trump threatens to strike Iran’s bridges and power plants if Tehran refuses to return to talks US President Donald Trump has warned that the United States could target Iran’s bridges and power plants next week if Tehran does not return to negotiations, escalating tensions between Washington and Tehran. President Trump said the planned action would follow continued pressure on Iran to reach a deal with the United States. He warned that further military measures could be taken if Iranian officials do not agree to resume talks. The comments come amid a worsening crisis between the two countries, with diplomatic efforts struggling to make progress. Trump has previously threatened expanded strikes against Iranian infrastructure as part of his campaign to force Tehran into negotiations. Speaking about the possibility of further action, Trump said Iran would face attacks on key infrastructure, including electricity facilities and major bridges, if it failed to return to discussions. The US president argued that increased military pressure would push Iran towards accepting a deal, while Iranian officials have rejected what they describe as pressure tactics from Washington. The latest threat comes as tensions between the United States and Iran continue to intensify. Recent confrontations have involved military strikes, disputes over regional security and disagreements over negotiations. Iran has warned that it would respond to further US attacks, raising fears that the confrontation could expand into a wider regional conflict.The possibility of strikes against civilian infrastructure has drawn international attention, with experts warning that attacks on power systems and transport networks could have serious consequences for ordinary people.

Governments and international organisations are closely watching developments as efforts continue to prevent further escalation and encourage diplomatic engagement. The coming days are expected to be critical as Washington waits for Tehran’s response. If talks do not resume, Trump has indicated that further US military action could follow.
