President Donald Trump has just threatened that “a whole civilization will die tonight” if a deal with Iran is not reached and the Strait of Hormuz is not reopened by his deadline at 8 p.m. ET.

“A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again,” Trump said in a post on his Truth Social platform.

“I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will,” Trump said, adding: “However, now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen, WHO KNOWS?”

The president said the world would “find out tonight” in what he described as “one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World.”

The comments are his latest threats ahead of the deadline.
