US President Donald Trump has warned Tehran that "1000 missiles are locked and loaded" to destroy Iran if any assassination attempt is made against him.
The latest escalation came only hours after US President Donald Trump declared that recent attacks on commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz had effectively ended the fragile agreement.
Iran's foreign ministry described the move as proof of America's "bad faith, inconsistency and unreliability." The ministry said Iran "will take whatever measures it considers necessary to safeguard its national interests and national security."
Trump threatens to take out Iran's top leadership gathered at Ayatollah Khamenei’s funeral, but confirmed a temporary one-week truce because Tehran is "begging" to negotiate. Trump also announced a White House meeting with Benjamin Netanyahu, firmly declaring himself "the boss."
