Trump threatens Iran after Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s funeral saw open calls for his killing
Trump warned the U.S. military could destroy Iran after mourners at Khamenei’s funeral called for his killing and attacks in the region escalated.
- On Saturday, President Donald Trump threatened Iran after funeral mourners called for his killing and that of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during services for the late Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
- Iran buried the late leader this week in a dayslong ceremony spanning Iran and Iraq, with Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei leading prayers Thursday at the Imam Reza Shrine in Mashhad.
- Trump wrote on Truth Social that "1000 Missiles are Locked and Loaded and aimed at the Islamic Republic of Iran," warning of further strikes if the Iranian Government acts on threats to assassinate him.
- While U.S. officials are negotiating a deal, Tehran insists the Strait of Hormuz remains under its exclusive control and demands transit fees, though the president retains military options if talks collapse.
- Repeated crossfire continues to buckle an interim deal to end the war, following attacks on three ships in the Strait earlier this week that previously caused energy prices to spike to $120 a barrel.
