President Donald Trump says Iran will “be blown off the face of the earth” if U.S. vessels guiding ships through the Strait of Hormuz are attacked, escalating his threats to eliminate Iranian civilization as the countries test a tenuous ceasefire during the weeks-long war.
U.S. military officials said Iran launched missiles, drones and small boats at ships sailing through the passage with U.S. support Monday. Six small Iranian boats were targeting civilian vessels, according to U.S. officials.
