US Central Command on Sunday released footage of the US military eliminating Iran’s drone capabilities.
“U.S. forces continue to eliminate the Iranian regime’s one-way attack drone capabilities, which they’ve used to indiscriminately target civilians throughout the region,” CENTCOM said.

President Trump on Saturday evening threatened to obliterate Iran’s power plants if they don’t fully open the Strait of Hormuz.
“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! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP,” Trump said on Saturday evening.
President Trump’s warning comes as Iran is only allowing certain ships, including oil tankers, to pass through the Strait of Hormuz.
Iran closed the Strait of Hormuz to all oil tankers and vessels except for a few approved ships.
Oil spiked to $112 per barrel amid the closure of the Strait of Hormuz and Iranian attacks on Qatar’s oil facility.
20% of the world’s oil supply goes through the Straight of Hormuz.
Last Tuesday US Central Command released unclassified footage of US Military strikes on the Iranian navy in the Strait of Hormuz.
The footage showed an Iranian submarine and smaller vessels being blown up.
Iran responded to the “terrorist president of the United States” after Trump threatened to attack its power plants if Iran does not open the Strait of Hormuz by Monday.
Army spokesman Ebrahim Zolfaghari made the threat on state television.
“We have repeatedly said the Strait of Hormuz is closed only to the enemy and to harmful traffic.”
“It has not yet been completely closed and is under our intelligent control, and harmless transit – under specific regulations that ensure our security and interests – is allowed.”
“However, if the United States carries out its threats against Iran’s power plants, the following punitive actions will be taken immediately”
“The Strait of Hormuz will be completely closed and will not reopen until our damaged power plants are rebuilt.”
“All power plants and the energy and information‑technology infrastructure of Israel will be widely targeted.”
