Iran's Supreme Leader Says Country Delivered 'Heavy Slap' to U.S. in First Remarks Since Ceasefire

  • Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei publicly addressed the situation for the first time since a ceasefire was reached, declaring victory over Israel and the United States.
  • The ceasefire came into effect on Tuesday after U.S. forces attacked Iran’s nuclear sites with bunker-buster bombs on June 22, intervening to prevent the Zionist regime’s destruction.
  • Khamenei stated that Iran conducted a missile attack against a U.S. military facility in Qatar earlier this week, resulting in no injuries, and cautioned the United States against any future hostile actions.
  • U.S. and intelligence officials reported severe damage to Fordo, Natanz, and Isfahan nuclear sites, which were not completely destroyed but set back for years, while Trump pledged new talks.
  • Khamenei declared the Islamic Republic victorious, urged pursuing peace and trade, but warned any aggression will bring heavy retaliation, reflecting ongoing tensions despite the ceasefire.
