'A whole civilization will die tonight,' Trump's fresh threat to Iran as Tuesday deadline looms

US President's remarks come hours before his 'Tuesday deadline' ends at 8:00 P.M. Eastern Time. 

As the US President's own deadline nears completion and his ''hell will reign upon Iran'' threat nears, he has delivered fresh remarks hinting at a significant escalation in the ongoing Iran-Israel-US war in West Asia.

On Tuesday, Trump, in a Truth Social post, wrote, "A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will."

"However, now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen, WHO KNOWS? We will find out tonight, one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World. 47 years of extortion, corruption, and death, will finally end. God Bless the Great People of Iran!" he added.

US President's remarks come hours before his 'Tuesday deadline' ends at 8:00 P.M. Eastern Time. 

However Trump kept doors open for a deal saying, "I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will."

Making it the strongest vocal threat issued by Trump, he vowed to end the whole of civilization. 

The US President has repeatedly threatened Iran, warning of severe strikes on its energy infrastructure if the Strait of Hormuz remains closed beyond the stipulated deadlines. 
Initially, he gave Iran 48 hours to reopen the strategic waterway, hinting at imminent military action if the demand was not fulfilled.

Despite the initial sense of urgency, Trump extended the deadline several times. The latest extension sets a fresh deadline of April 7, following earlier prolongations that stretched the original 48‑hour ultimatum to a 10-day deadline.

With repeated threats and multiple deadline extensions, an uncertain situation looms around the critically important maritime trade route, the Strait of Hormuz. 

Although there are no official indications around the US further extending the deadline. 

Meanwhile, Iran's 'Forbidden Island', the Kharg Island, has come under attack according to Iranian Media.

Earlier in a Truth Social Post on April 5, Trump vowed to target Iran's power plants and bridges using harsh words.

Iran, on the other hand, has issued warnings to target US and allied infrastructure, vowing to disrupt regional oil and gas flows "for years,' said IRGC.
