Iran Calls For Human Chains Around Power Plants Amid Trump's Hormuz Deadline

US Iran War Latest News: With US President Donald Trump's deadline for the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz approaching fast, Tehran has reportedly called on young Iranians to form symbolic "human chains" around Iran's key power plants. Iran's Ministry of Sports and Youth has called on the country's youth, including athletes, artists and students, to gather around the nuclear sites from 2:00 pm (local) on Tuesday. That is around 13 hours before Trump's deadline for the Strait of Hormuz to reopen, which ends at 3:30 am (local time) on Wednesday. "This action (the human chain) has been formed at the suggestion of the youth themselves," Iran's Deputy of Youth Affairs, Alireza Rahimi, said in a video message. "A number of university youth, young artists, and youth organisations proposed that we form a human ring or human chain around the country's power plants," he added.
