US President Doanld Trump has proclaimed the “death of Iran,” adding that now, “the greatest enemy America has is the Radical Left, Highly Incompetent, Democrat Party!” Meanwhile, Iranian missiles continue to rock Israel.

Strikes on the cities of Dimona and Arad in Southern Israel have left 36 people hospitalized, including 19 children. Visiting one of the sites, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said it was a “miracle” that no one was killed and urged residents to shelter when they hear a warning siren.

At least 1,444 people have been killed and 18,551 injured by US-Israeli attacks on Iran since February 28, Iran’s Health Ministry has said. Retaliatory strikes have claimed 18 lives in the Jewish State and 13 at US bases in the region.

Here are the latest developments:

• US President Donald Trump has threatened to strike power plants in Iran unless the Strait of Hormuz is reopened within 48 hours.
• Iran has kept the crucial waterway largely closed to vessels linked to the US and Israel since the outbreak of the war on February 28. The Hormuz disruption – affecting a route carrying roughly one-fifth of global oil supplies – has already pushed crude prices higher and heightened concerns over a prolonged global supply shock.
• The IRGC has released a statement, saying that should the power plants be targeted, the Strait of Hormuz will be “completely” closed and won’t be reopened until the facilities are rebuilt.
• Saudi Arabia has declared several Iranian embassy staff, including the military attaché, as persona non grata, ordering them to leave the country within 24 hours due to Tehran’s ongoing attacks on the Gulf region.
