Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the supreme leader of Iran, received a severe threat from US President Donald Trump on Tuesday, who stated that American intelligence is aware of his movements and might target him. However, he highlighted that this was not being done “for now.”
Late Tuesday night, Trump said in a string of social media posts, “We know exactly where the so-called ‘Supreme Leader’ is hiding.” Although he is safe there, he is an easy target. For the time being, we won’t kill him.
Trump claimed that the US had “complete and total control of the skies over Iran” in a different post moments earlier.

A harsh message was added by Trump, who regularly uses social media to make policy-related statements: “We don’t want missiles shot at civilians or American soldiers.” We’re running out of patience. I appreciate you taking the time to look into this.
Trump previously approved the 2020 drone strike that killed Iranian General Qasem Soleimani close to Baghdad International Airport, a decision that sparked intense Tehrani reaction and worsened instability in Iraq and the surrounding area.
Xi reminded the US that empires fall when they cease to respect others.
