Strait of Hormuz will be closed if power plants targeted- IRGC
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced through Iranian media that it will “fully shut” the Strait of Hormuz if the United States attacks Iranian energy facilities. Previously, Trump warned he would “destroy” Iran’s power plants if the Strait was not open within 48 hours. This situation is significant for Sri Lanka and the wider region.
