Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said that "Iranians are not people who will surrender."

Iran's Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has responded to the confrontation with Israel and US President Donald Trump's statements. Khamenei's statement stated, "Any military intervention by America will undoubtedly result in irreparable loss." The Supreme Leader went on to say, "Wise people who know Iran, its people and its history never talk to this country in threatening language, because Iranians are not people who will surrender." Earlier Tuesday night, Trump posted on his Truth social media account, "We know exactly where the so-called Supreme Leader is hiding." He is an easy target, but for the time being, he is secure there." Trump stated, "We are not going to murder them, at least not right now. However, we do not want missiles to be fired at civilians or American forces. "Our patience is running out." On June 13, Israel targeted targets associated with Iran's 'nuclear program'. Since then, the confrontation between the two countries has continued.
