US President Donald Trump says Washington knows where Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is “hiding” and could assassinate him, but is refraining from doing so for now in order not to spark retaliation against American civilians and troops.
“We know exactly where the so-called ‘Supreme Leader’ is hiding. He is an easy target, but is safe there — We are not going to take him out (kill!), at least not for now,” Trump writes on Truth Social.
“But we don’t want missiles shot at civilians, or American soldiers. Our patience is wearing thin,” he adds.
In a subsequent post, he writes, “UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER.”
