Is Donald Trump planning a nuclear attack on Iran?
Washington : Amid escalating tensions in West Asia, U.S. President Donald Trump on Sunday issued a sharp and controversial warning to Iran. In a post on his social media platform, Truth Social, Trump demanded that Iran immediately reopen the strategically vital Strait of Hormuz, a key global oil transit route.
Concerns over possible strike on nuclear or energy sites
Trump’s remarks have triggered global concern after he referred to an event he called “Power Plant Day.” Analysts interpret this as a possible संकेत of a large-scale strike targeting Iran’s nuclear facilities or energy infrastructure. In his post, Trump wrote:
“Tuesday will be both ‘Power Plant Day’ and ‘Bridge Day’ in Iran. It will be something never seen before!!! Open that strait, or you will face hell—just watch! Alhamdulillah (Praise be to Allah). President Donald J. Trump.”
The strong tone of the message has fueled speculation that the United States may be preparing for a significant military move against Iran.
Iran’s response: ‘Closed only for enemies’
In response, Iran has blamed the United States and Israel for the ongoing global energy tensions. Dr. Abdul Majid Hakim Elahi, a representative of Iran’s Supreme Leader in India, stated on Sunday that the Strait of Hormuz is closed only to Iran’s adversaries, while vessels from other nations are allowed to pass freely.
In an interview with ANI, Dr. Elahi noted that some Indian ships have safely transited through the strait and expressed hope that this would continue. Addressing the conflict that reportedly began on February 28, he said its resolution depends entirely on the countries that initiated it. He added that the war would end immediately if attacks on Iran cease.
India’s potential role in peace efforts
Dr. Elahi also said that countries like India can play a constructive role in de-escalating the conflict. Dismissing reports of mediation efforts through Pakistan, he claimed that the United States is more focused on controlling oil prices than achieving lasting peace.
With tensions mounting, global attention is now fixed on the coming Tuesday, which Trump has described as “Power Plant Day,” raising fears of a potential escalation in the region.
