President Donald Trump has warned Iran that the US will destroy one bridge or power plant each time Iran shoots at a ship in the Strait of Hormuz.

The warning came after the US carried out another wave of strikes on Iran, where air defences opened fire over the capital, Tehran.

Iran launched a missile attack on a Jordanian city on Israel’s doorstep, and alerts were issued in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia.

In his warning on social media, the president returned to earlier threats to target civilian infrastructure in retaliation for Iranian attacks.
