US President Donald Trump has given a negative response to the Israel plan targeted at Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, reported yesterday, June 15, according to “Reuters” citing two high-ranking US officials.
According to the information, the Trump administration has maintained the stance: “As long as Iran has not killed any American, we will not discuss targeting their political leadership,”.
Against the backdrop of this news, Tzachi Hanegbi, the head of Israel’s National Security Council, called this announcement by “Reuters” “fake news.”
Moreover, according to a source from “The Wall Street Journal”, an Israeli official has stated, “Ali Khamenei is not insured against attacks.”
It is to be reminded, the tension between Tehran and Tel Aviv has escalated in recent weeks due to nuclear facilities and drone attacks.
