Iranian Commander Threatens To Match Any US Strike Blow For Blow
The threat answers Trump's own vow to hit bridges and power plants if Iran keeps blocking the strait.
- Col. Ebrahim Zolfaghari, Khatam al-Anbiya spokesman, called Hormuz control an 'unbreakable red line.'
- Only 13 merchant ships crossed Hormuz Wednesday, one via a US-approved safe corridor.
- US Hellfire missiles disabled an Iranian tanker; a drone strike hit Iraq's Basra oil terminal.
Why it matters: A commander threatening blow for blow no longer describes deterrence; it describes a war already underway.
