President Donald Trump stated on Friday that the United States would fully dismantle Iran should that nation attempt to kill him. Posting on Truth Social, Trump declared that thousands of missiles are prepared to strike the Islamic Republic if his safety is compromised. He asserted that the U.S. military has standing orders to neutralize Iranian territory if an attack on his life occurs.
This warning followed Trump’s announcement that the ongoing ceasefire is finished, although he noted he remains open to continued diplomatic discussions. Conversely, Iran maintains that it has honored the truce terms. Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi criticized the U.S. administration, accusing it of breaching the memorandum of understanding regarding nuclear program status and regional military deployment. Tensions have escalated significantly this week after both nations exchanged fire, undermining recent efforts to secure a lasting peace agreement.
