Base 90 in Otopeni is recording intense activity ahead of the deadline given to Iran by Donald Trump.

On April 7, 2026, the 90th Air Transport Base in Otopeni is witnessing intense activity, just a few hours before the expiration of the ultimatum from the U.S. President, Donald Trump, addressed to Iran. This base has become a strategic point for the deployment of additional U.S. aircraft in the context of the conflict with Iran. On site, KC-135 tanker aircraft are stationed, capable of transporting up to 60 tons of fuel for air refueling missions. The aerial activity is heightened by the arrival of at least three military helicopters.

Trump has threatened Iran that, in the event it does not accept an agreement regarding the reopening of shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, the country's infrastructure will be massively hit, having the capacity to destroy 'every bridge' and 'every power plant.' The regime in Tehran has rejected the ultimatum, warning that it will intensify attacks on energy infrastructure in the Persian Gulf, which could severely affect global energy supply. President Trump emphasized the importance of the moment, stating that a regime change in Iran could bring revolutionary changes.
