Trump Threatens Iran With Heavy Strikes on Energy Targets

US President Donald Trump threatened to hit Iran “very hard,” with US media reporting that Washington and Israel are coordinating potential joint strikes on Iranian energy infrastructure, including oil refineries and power plants, as soon as this weekend. The reports follow a recent meeting between Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Washington. The potential attacks come five months into the ongoing conflict, which began with initial US and Israeli strikes on Feb. 28.
