Trump Threatens Iran Over Hormuz as US-Saudi Nuclear Deal Alarms Israel (Jul 22, 1537 UTC, 1837 Israel) (Evening Edition)
President Trump threatened to destroy Iranian bridges and power plants for each attack on shipping in the Strait of Hormuz, while the IRGC claimed a new strike on US bases in Jordan. The US is expected to sign a 30-year civilian nuclear agreement with Saudi Arabia, drawing sharp Israeli objections. In Lebanon, the army deployed to a pilot zone as the prime minister visited a southern village, calling for a full Israeli withdrawal.
