He has both threatened to “obliterate” Iran’s #energy plants if the vital waterway remains largely shuttered & said the #US was “not affected” by the closure.

At one point this month, #Trump said one of his predecessors—who, he strongly suggested, was a Democrat—privately told him he wished he had taken similar action against #Iran. Reps for every living former president quickly denied that such a conversation happened.

As the war entered its second month on Saturday, Trump’s penchant for embellishments, exaggerations & falsehoods is being tested in an environment where the stakes are much higher than an isolated political fight.

Large oil refinery explosion near Texas coast forces residents to shelter in place

Officials say a large explosion at an oil refinery near the Texas coast has shot plumes of smoke into the air and forced nearby residents to shelter in place.

While attacks on #electricity could hurt #Iran, they could be catastrophic for its Gulf neighbors, which consume around 5 times as much #power per capita.

Electricity makes their gleaming desert cities habitable, in part by powering the #desalination plants that produce 100% of the #water consumed in #Bahrain & #Qatar. Such plants use seawater to meet more than 80% of #DrinkingWater needs in the #UAE, & 50% of the water supply in #SaudiArabia.

Fatih Birol, #IEA exec dir, said the resulting #EnergyCrisis was worse than the 2 #oil shocks of the 1970s & the #gas shortage connected to #Russia's 2022 invasion of #Ukraine put together.

#Iran's Defence Council escalated its threatened retaliation Monday, prior to Trump's delay, saying Tehran would cut all Gulf routes by laying sea #mines if #Trump followed through….

"In this case, the entire Gulf will practically be in a situation similar to the #StraitOfHormuz for a long time..."

@Nonilex@masto.ai · 6 days ago

On Saturday, #Trump had warned that #Iran #power plants would be destroyed if Tehran failed to "fully open" the #StraitOfHormuz to all shipping within 48 hrs. Trump set a deadline of around 7:44 PM EDT (2344 GMT) Monday.

The IRGC on Monday threatened retaliation, saying they would attack #Israel's power plants & those supplying #US bases across the Gulf region if Trump followed through with his threat.

>2,000 people have been #killed in the #war the #US & #Israel launched on Feb 28, which has upended #markets, driven up #fuel costs, accelerated global #inflation fears & convulsed the Western ‌defense #alliance.

However, the ⁠threat of strikes on Gulf #electricity grids raised fears of mass disruption to #desalination for #DrinkingWater, & further rattled #oil #markets.

An US-operated Patriot air defense battery likely fired the interceptor missile involved in a pre-dawn explosion that injured dozens of #civilians & tore through homes in #US #ally #Bahrain 10 days into the #war on #Iran, acc/to an analysis by academic researchers examined by Reuters.

Both Bahrain & the #Trump admin blamed an Iranian drone attack for the March 9 blast, which the Gulf kingdom said injured 32 people including #children, some seriously.

@Nonilex@masto.ai replied · 7 days ago

Commenting on the day of the attack, CENTCOM said that an Iranian drone struck a residential neighborhood in #Bahrain.

In response to questions from Reuters, Bahrain on Saturday acknowledged for the first time that a Patriot missile was involved in the explosion over the #Mahazza neighborhood on #Sitraisland, offshore from the capital #Manama & also home to an #oil refinery.
