Hegseth threatens Iran's infrastructure
US Secretary of War Pete Hegseth has issued a new, specific threat against Iran, stating the United States is 'locked and loaded' to target the country's critical dual-use infrastructure. In his latest remarks, Hegseth warned that if Iran 'chooses poorly,' it will face a blockade and bombs dropping on its infrastructure, power, and energy. This escalates the administration's public rhetoric as the US continues to enforce its naval blockade of the Strait of Hormuz.
Hegseth has now directly addressed Iran's leadership, urging them to 'choose wisely' in his latest statement.
Hegseth added specific details about targeting infrastructure, power, and energy, and announced 'Operation Economic Fury' to maximize economic pressure.
Hegseth explicitly stated Iran would face bombs on its 'infrastructure, power, and energy' if it chooses poorly.
