flag Iran threatens to close the Strait of Hormuz if Trump attacks its energy sites, risking global oil supply.

Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has warned it would fully close the Strait of Hormuz if former President Donald Trump carries out threats to attack Iranian energy facilities. The warning, issued amid heightened tensions over Iran's nuclear program and regional influence, underscores fears of major disruptions to global oil shipments. The Strait is a vital shipping route for world energy supplies. Iran's threat reflects a broader deterrence strategy in response to perceived U.S. aggression, though no immediate action has been taken. The exchange adds to concerns about regional stability.
