As the West Asia conflict enters its 31st day, US President Donald Trump has issued a direct ultimatum to Iran, threatening to obliterate energy infrastructure if the Strait of Hormuz is not reopened. The threats target power plants, oil wells, and Kharg Island, a strategic hub handling 90% of Iran's oil exports. This follows earlier US precision strikes on military infrastructure on the island. The conflict has widened as Iran-backed Houthi rebels launched multiple attacks on Israel, signalling a new front and threatening the Bab-al-Mandab Strait, which controls 12% of global seaborne oil trade and access to the Suez Canal. In response to the escalating crisis, the US has increased the number of its troops in the Middle East. So, is the United States now all set to launch a ground offensive in Iran? Watch as experts share their thoughts on this and more on the show.
