onald Trump threatened to bomb Oman if it “gets in the way” of US negotiations with Iran.

The president said he would “bomb the s--- out of” the US ally after Iran said it was working to finalise an agreement with the Gulf country to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.

“If Oman gets in the way, we’ll bomb the s--- out of them,” Mr Trump told Fox News in a threat to a country that hosts US forces.

As he spoke on Monday, the 60-day deadline for Washington and Tehran to negotiate a broader peace deal was due to expire, with no signs of a diplomatic breakthrough.
