Iran will completely shut the strategic Strait ​of Hormuz if Trump executes threats to target Iranian energy facilities, ​the country's Revolutionary Guards ​said in a statement on ⁠Sunday.

Trump on Saturday threatened ​to "obliterate" Iran's power plants ​if Tehran did not fully reopen the Strait of Hormuz within ​48-hours, suggesting a significant ​escalation barely a day after he ‌talked ⁠about "winding down" the war, now in its fourth week.

In their Sunday statement Iran's ​Revolutionary ​Guards ⁠also said companies with U.S. shares will ​be 'completely destroyed', if Iranian ​energy ⁠facilities were targeted by Washington and energy facilities ⁠in ​countries that host ​U.S. bases will be 'lawful' targets.

edit: I'd made the erroneous assumption this was a reply to a higher level comment.

What is it that you're suggesting here?
