Hyderabad, April 4 -- United States (US) President Donald Trump on Saturday, April 4, warned Iran it faces severe retaliation if it fails to reopen the Strait of Hormuz or strike a deal within 48 hours, as the US-Israel conflict with Tehran continues to widen across West Asia.

In a post on his Truth Social platform, Trump underscored the urgency of the deadline and reiterated his earlier ultimatum. "Remember when I gave Iran ten days to MAKE A DEAL or OPEN UP THE HORMUZ STRAIT. Time is running out - 48 hours before all Hell will reign down on them. Glory be to GOD!" he said.

The warning follows his extension of a deadline to April 6 for Iran to reopen the key maritime route, which carries nearly a fifth of global oil supplies.
