What ultimatum did President Trump issue regarding Iran?

Jane Fergus 0:02
48-hour ultimatum. I'm Jane Fergus, Fox News. President Trump posting on Truth Social that Iran has two days to reopen the Strait of Hormuz fully and without threats or the U.S. will hit and obliterate various power plants, with the biggest one in Iran being targeted first. Meanwhile, U.S. and Israeli forces continue to strike targets in Iran, including a nuclear facility. Fox's Mike Tobin is in Tel Aviv.

U.S. strikes hit the Natanz nuclear facility in Iran. That's the primary facility for enrichment of uranium.

What recent events have escalated tensions between the U.S. and Iran?

Mike Tobin 0:39
That's also the facility that was the target of that Stuxnet cyber attack. And a brilliant bit of espionage by the U.S. and Israel. The computers at Natanz were infected with a worm. They told the operators of the nuclear centrifuges everything was working fine while the centrifuges spun out of control until they broke. Now, following the strikes at Natanz, the IAEA posted there is no increase in off-site radiation levels. So no word on nuclear fallout from the strike. And Israel continues to take rocket fire in the north. We've got reports of some five injuries from a Hezbollah rocket.

This comes as the United Arab Emirates claims it dismantled an Iran-linked terrorist cell. Former special counsel Robert Mueller has died at the age of 81. Fox's Chad Pergram with more on his legacy.
Chad Pergram 1:25
He became the FBI director just a couple of days before 9-11. He was better known as the special counsel in the Russia probe. He did not find any Russian conspiracy in the 2016 election. He appeared at a big hearing back in July of 2019, and he took no stance when questioned by Democrats at that hearing whether or not President Trump had committed a crime. He kind of hinted in his report, though, that maybe the House should consider impeaching President Trump, which they did a few months later.

A missing Alabama student's body has been found in Spain where he was on spring break. Police say his death was likely an accident and his body was found in shallow water near a nightclub. Fox's Stephanie Bennett reports.
Unknown 2:30
Investigators say initial signs point to an accidental death, but the cause and circumstances are unclear. Police have not ruled out the possibility he could have been under the influence of drugs or alcohol or waiting on the autopsy and toxicology results. 20-year-old James Jimmy Gracie was an Illinois native and junior studying at the University of Alabama. Families say he spent last weekend in Amsterdam before flying Monday to Barcelona to visit friends for spring break. Well, on Tuesday, he was last seen outside the Chaco nightclub and separated from friends around 3 a.m., never returning to his room. His family say they realized something was wrong when police contacted them, saying they recovered his phone.
Unknown 3:05
His father rushed out to Barcelona and has been working with police ever since.
Jane Fergus 3:09
Gracie's family in a statement said they were heartbroken and asked for prayers and privacy. Flooding inundating much of Hawaii after rain hit the island state, leading to massive damage and a possible dam collapse. Here's Fox's Christina Coleman.

More than 230 people were rescued from severe flooding after heavy rain pounded the area, causing the worst flooding on the Hawaiian island of Oahu in 20 years. Fortunately, there have been no reports of any deaths or missing people. The flooding prompted evacuation orders for thousands of people in towns north of Honolulu. Floodwaters washed away roads, damaged homes, and swallowed up cars. The governor estimates the extensive storm damage is over a billion dollars. Heavy rains pounded the state last week, threatening a 120-year-old dam. Now, water levels have been receding, but officials worried the dam could still fail if the island ends up getting more heavy rain.
Jane Fergus 4:01
And Governor Josh Green said the storm impacted not only Rhodes schools and homes, but a major hospital in Maui.
