💨 Abstract

Iran has threatened to strike power plants across the Middle East if the U.S. targets Iranian power stations. This threat is significant because many Gulf states rely on these plants for both electricity and water desalination. Recent missile exchanges between Iran and Israel have escalated tensions. The International Energy Agency warns that the Middle East crisis has severely impacted energy markets. The U.S. has set a deadline for Iran to open the Strait of Hormuz, threatening to attack Iranian power plants if not met.
