When is Trump's deadline for Iran to reopen Strait of Hormuz? Check exact timing that U.S. President has set for Tehran

Trump deadline for Iran: U.S. President Donald Trump's ultimatum to Iran make a deal ticked closer with Donald Trump threatening to attack all power plants and bridges. Tehran rejected a 45-day ceasefire proposal and said it wants a permanent end to the war. Trump warned on Monday he is "not at all" concerned about committing possible war crimes as he again threatened to destroy Iranian infrastructure if Tehran does not meet his Tuesday 8 p.m. (ET) deadline to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.

President Trump has also warned that a “whole civilisation will die tonight” but said Iran still has time to capitulate ahead of a deadline set for 8 pm in Washington. The American leader issued the stark threat Tuesday, about 12 hours ahead of his deadline for Iran to agree to a deal that includes reopening the Strait of Hormuz or face punishing strikes.

Trump wrote on his social media site: “A whole civilisation will die tonight, never to be brought back again.”


U.N. Secretary-General António Guterres warned the U.S. that attacking civilian infrastructure is banned under international law, his spokesperson said Monday.

Israel carried out a new wave of attacks on Iran early Tuesday, while Iran responded with missile fire against Israel and its Gulf Arab neighbors.

A gunfight erupted outside the Israeli Consulate in Istanbul on Tuesday. The exchange with police left two assailants dead while a third was captured. One police officer sustained injuries.

More than 1,900 people have been killed in Iran since the war began, but the government has not updated the toll for days.

In Lebanon, more than 1,400 people have been killed and more than 1 million people have been displaced. Eleven Israeli soldiers have died there.

In Gulf Arab states and the occupied West Bank, more than two dozen people have died, while 23 have been reported dead in Israel and 13 U.S. service members have been killed.

A telecommunications building in the United Arab Emirates was struck Tuesday by an Iranian ballistic missile, injuring two people, authorities said. The missile hit an administrative building for the Thuraya Telecommunications Company in Sharjah, the medical office said.

The two Pakistani nationals injured in the strike were taken to a hospital, the office said.
