"United States President Donald Trump has pushed back a self-imposed deadline for attacks on Iran's power grid to April 6, citing progress in negotiations to end the ongoing war in the country."
"On Sunday, Trump threatened to attack Iran's power grid if the Strait of Hormuz was not opened within 48 hours, stating he would strike energy plants, STARTING WITH THE BIGGEST ONE FIRST."
"Legal experts have described the initial attack on Iran as an act of unprovoked aggression, and intentionally targeting Iran's power supply could increase criticism of the overall military campaign."
The US president has delayed attacks on Iran's power grid to April 6, citing progress in negotiations. This postponement aims to pressure Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, a crucial oil transit route. The president's statements indicate ongoing talks, despite Iran's denial of their existence. The Trump administration has faced criticism for its contradictory statements regarding the war, which began with US and Israeli attacks on Iran. Targeting Iran's energy infrastructure raises concerns about potential war crimes under international law.
