U.S. President Donald Trump wrote in a June 10 Truth Social post that Iranian officials had "taken too long to negotiate a deal that would have been great for them, now they will have to pay the price!!!" and threatened to order attacks on Iranian power plants and bridges. The threats came hours after Iran conducted retaliatory strikes on U.S. military sites in the region, including in Bahrain, Kuwait and Jordan, in response to earlier U.S. "self-defense strikes" on Qeshm Island, Jask, Bandar Abbas and Sirik, which Iranian media claimed damaged two water reservoirs.
