Trump warns Iran to stop ‘proxies in Lebanon’ or US will hit Tehran 'very hard again'
Trump said Iran must stop Hezbollah in Lebanon or face renewed U.S. strikes as negotiators pressed ahead on a 60-day interim deal.
- President Donald Trump issued an aggressive military warning to Tehran on Sunday, demanding via Truth Social that Iran immediately halt operations by its "highly paid proxies" in Lebanon or face severe U.S. airstrikes.
- Trump directly threatened to surpass the intensity of last week's Pentagon campaign, writing that if the trouble caused by groups like Hezbollah does not stop, "we'll hit Iran very hard again, just like we did last week, only harder!!!"
- The escalatory rhetoric deliberately targets Iran's closure of the Strait of Hormuz, with Trump warning in a separate Fox News interview that if Tehran keeps the strategic waterway blocked, "you won't have a country" and "you won't even make it back to your f----- country."
- Trump floated a dramatic unilateral takeover of the shipping lane, asserting that the U.S. could step in as the "Guardian Angel" of the Strait of Hormuz, collect maritime transit tolls, and claim a 20% cut of the oil supply if a diplomatic deal fails.
- The explosive threats hit exactly as delicate peace talks open in Europe, colliding head-on with a historic, trilateral meeting in Bürgenstock, Switzerland, where Vice President JD Vance and Iranian officials are attempting to negotiate a permanent regional ceasefire.
