      <title>Trump threatens to strike Iran’s bridges and electric power plants</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/330456337/trump-threatens-to-strike-irans-bridges-and-electric-power-plants</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;US President Donald Trump warned late on Thursday ‌about striking and destroying bridges and electric power plants in Iran in his latest threat to hit the country’s infrastructure.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The US military “hasn’t even started destroying what’s left in Iran. Bridges next, then ​Electric Power Plants,” Trump wrote on social media.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;His post said that Iran’s leadership “knows ​what has to be done, and has to be done, FAST!”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Trump, who ⁠has previously offered shifting timelines and objectives for the war, said in a televised ​speech on Wednesday that the war could escalate if Iran did not give in to ​Washington’s terms, with strikes on its energy and oil infrastructure possible.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Dozens of international law experts in the US signed an open letter released earlier on Thursday saying that US strikes on Iran may amount ​to war crimes.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The 1949 Geneva Conventions on humanitarian conduct in war prohibit attacks on sites ​considered essential for civilians.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Geneva Conventions and additional protocols say that parties involved in military conflict must ‌distinguish ⁠between “civilian objects and military objectives”, and that attacks on civilian objects are forbidden.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“We are going to hit them extremely hard over the next two to three weeks. We are going to bring them back to the Stone Age, where they belong,” Trump said ​in his Wednesday address.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;While ​he said Washington was ⁠nearing the completion of its goals in Iran, Trump did not lay out a timeline to end the war.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The war began ​on February 28 when the US and Israel attacked Iran. Tehran ​responded by ⁠launching its own attacks on Israel and Gulf states with US bases.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Joint US-Israeli strikes in Iran and Israeli attacks in Lebanon have killed thousands and displaced millions.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The war has also ⁠raised ​oil prices and shaken global markets. Trump’s mixed messages ​thus far have done little to ease the concerns over his country’s biggest military attacks since the 2003 ​invasion of Iraq.&lt;/p&gt;
