A firm message was delivered to the United States by Iran’s representative to the United Nations following deadly airstrikes over the weekend.
In a sharp escalation, the United States and Israel conducted coordinated airstrikes on Iran after stalled nuclear talks. The strikes targeted senior Iranian leadership at a compound in Tehran. Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, and four family members were reported killed; Israel said the operation also targeted President Masoud Pezeshkian.
Donald Trump posted on Truth Social: “It’s a very simple message. They will never have a nuclear weapon. We’re going to destroy their missiles and raze their missile industry to the ground. It will be totally again obliterated.” He added: “Lay down your arms or face certain death.”
Iran announced the “first wave of extensive missile and drone attacks” across Israel, according to the New York Post, and signaled preparations to strike U.S. bases. State media warned of “the most devastating offensive operation in the history of the Islamic Republic of Iran’s armed forces,” and the Fars News Agency reported: “The most devastating offensive operation in the history of the Islamic Republic of Iran’s armed forces will begin toward the occupied territories and American terrorist bases in just moments.”
