Donald Trump threatened to bomb Oman if the country interfered with a deal regarding the management of the Strait of Hormuz with Iran. This threat came amid ongoing talks between Oman and Iran concerning a joint shipping route, which would involve Iranian supervision for vessels entering the corridor and Omani jurisdiction for those exiting.
