A top Iranian official has warned US President Donald Trump that Iran will “avenge” the killing of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. Security Council Secretary Ali Larijani said Iran will not leave Trump alone and vowed to continue strikes on US and Israeli bases. He also claimed several American soldiers were captured during the conflict, though the US denied the claim. Trump dismissed the warning and said he “couldn’t care less”. He added that Iran had already been defeated and demanded unconditional surrender. The comments come as fighting between the US, Israel and Iran continues, with airstrikes, missile attacks and rising casualties across the Middle East region. (PC: Reuters)
