“Khamenei, one of the most evil people in History, is dead,” Trump wrote. He added that the outcome represents “justice for the people of Iran” as well as for others around the world.
US President Donald Trump claimed on Truth Social that Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is dead, describing the development as “justice” and a major turning point in the conflict.
“Khamenei, one of the most evil people in History, is dead,” Trump wrote. He added that the outcome represents “justice for the people of Iran” as well as for others around the world.
Claims of intelligence success and coordination with Israel
Trump said the outcome was the result of advanced surveillance capabilities and cooperation with Israel.
“He was unable to avoid our Intelligence and Highly Sophisticated Tracking Systems,” he wrote, adding that “working closely with Israel, there was not a thing he, or the other leaders that have been killed along with him, could do.”
He did not provide independent verification of the claim.
Calls for Iranian military to switch sides
In his post, Trump suggested that elements within Iran’s security forces were reconsidering their positions.
“We are hearing that many of their IRGC, Military, and other Security and Police Forces, no longer want to fight, and are looking for Immunity from us,” he wrote.
He referenced a previous statement, saying: “Now they can have Immunity, later they only get Death!”
Trump urged Iran’s security forces to align with civilians, stating he hoped they would “peacefully merge with the Iranian Patriots.”
Continued military campaign
Trump said military operations would continue until objectives are achieved.
“The heavy and pinpoint bombing, however, will continue, uninterrupted throughout the week or, as long as necessary,” he wrote.
He described the campaign’s broader goal as achieving “PEACE THROUGHOUT THE MIDDLE EAST AND, INDEED, THE WORLD.”
No immediate official confirmation
The post did not include evidence confirming Khamenei’s status, and there was no immediate public confirmation from Iranian authorities at the time of the statement.
