Diego Garcia after Iran targets the remote islands key US military base
In a Saturday evening post on Truth Social, Trump threatened an escalation, warning that if Iran didnt fully open, without threat Hormuz in 48 hours, the US military would begin targeting Iranian power plants, starting with the biggest

Neither of the missiles hit their target, with one believed to have been intercepted and the other failing in flight, according to The Wall Street Journal.
It is the first confirmed use of intermediate range ballistic missiles by Tehran launched from some 2,400 miles away and marks a significant escalation of the war.
Fears have been raised that London could be within range of Iranian missiles after a dramatic escalation in tensions in the Middle East. An expert has warned that an attempted Iranian strike on the joint UK/US military base at Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean could signal a major shift in the conflict and potentially place parts of Europe, including the UK capital, in the firing line.
The comments come after Iran fired two ballistic missiles at the base in the Indian Ocean. The missiles are not believed to have hit, but the attempted strike has raised fresh fears about the potential reach of Irans weapons. Muhanad Seloom, a lecturer at the Doha Institute for Graduate Studies, said the incident changes the calculus for the United States.
Speaking to Al Jazeera, he said These missiles to Diego Garcia means Iran has 4,000km 2,490 miles plus ballistic missiles and that hasnt been revealed before. All reports before that said Iran had a 2,000km range 1,240 miles and not beyond that
The analysis came as Iran threatened popular tourist spots around the world, many of which are filled with Brits. Tehrans forces have already targeted Dubai numerous times in recent weeks.
