Chapter 1: What ultimatum did President Trump give to Iran regarding the Strait of Hormuz?
Tough talk from the president. I'm Chris DiMeo, Fox News. An ultimatum from President Trump to Iran Saturday night, telling Tehran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz or else.
The president posted an ultimatum on Truth Social saying, if Iran doesn't fully open without threat the Strait of Hormuz within 48 hours from this exact point in time, the United States of America will hit and obliterate their various power plants, starting with the biggest one first. Tensions have been rising over the Strait as mines and gunboats from Iran have threatened oil tankers.
Meanwhile, foreign ministers from the G7, including the U.S., France, U.K., Italy, and others, put out a statement saying they're willing to take necessary measures to ensure the security of global energy supplies.

Meantime, Iran striking a joint U.S. and U.K. military base, Diego Garcia, that Tehran once claimed was out of missile range. This has Israel faces fire from Hezbollah.
Iran fired intermediate range ballistic missiles at the U.S.-British base on the island of Diego Garcia. Its significance is that Diego Garcia is 2,500 miles out in the Indian Ocean. Iran had insisted that their missiles were limited to just over 1,200 miles. 2,500 miles puts a significant portion of Europe in striking distance.
Now, Israel is also taking more rocket fire from Hezbollah in the north of the country. There are more injuries in the north of the country because of that Hezbollah rocket fire. Israel's chief of the general staff, with troops massing on the border, says he has now approved the battle plan to go ahead and launch an offensive into Lebanon to stop that rocket fire.

It's something that a lot of passengers would likely welcome, as we have been seeing painfully long TSA lines all across the country, including here at Hartsfield-Jackson. People waiting for well over an hour to finally get through TSA. Travelers packing the hallways of this airport, some arriving three, four hours before their flights.
This is all happening as TSA workers are continuing to get $0 paychecks. Many are calling out sick, quarantined. quitting, finding other jobs, as a lot of these workers can't even afford basic necessities. Travelers we've talked to are obviously frustrated, but they only blame the government.
