Iranian Lawmakers Urge Retaliation Against Israel, US After Khamenei Killing
Two Iranian parliament members called for military action against Israel and the United States following the reported death of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.
Two members of Iran's parliament on Sunday called for retaliatory strikes against Israel and the United States, accusing them of responsibility for the killing of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. One lawmaker said the legislature should officially sanction a response, while a second directly threatened U.S. President Donald Trump.
The comments come amid rising regional tensions and follow unconfirmed reports of Khamenei's death. The situation adds to uncertainty in the Middle East, with potential implications for global energy markets and geopolitical stability.
