IRAN’S Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei claimed US President Donald Trump had “exaggerated” the effect of strikes on Iranian nuclear sites and threatened to target American military bases again, The Times of Israel reported.
In a televised speech on Thursday, Khamenei said, “The American president exaggerated events in unusual ways, and it turned out that he needed this exaggeration.” Khamenei said the US “has gained nothing from this war”, adding that American strikes “did nothing significant” to Iranian nuclear facilities. He threatened, “Such an action can be repeated in the future, too” and mentioned that Iran has “access to key US centres in the region and can take action whenever it deems necessary”.
Tensions escalated in West Asia after the US conducted precision airstrikes early Sunday morning on three key Iranian nuclear facilities under “Operation Midnight Hammer.” Iran retaliated by launching multiple missiles at US military installations in Qatar and Iraq, including the Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar.
