Amid escalating tensions, Iran's Khamenei rejected US demands of surrender after Israeli airstrikes on Iranian nuclear sites. Iran retaliated with hypersonic missiles and drones.
Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on Wednesday asserted that the Islamic Republic would not bow down to US demands, amid heightened regional tensions following an intensifying conflict between Israel and Iran. In a strongly worded address aired on state television, Khamenei responded to US President Donald Trump’s calls for Iran’s “unconditional surrender”, calling them “unacceptable” and warning Washington of serious consequences.
Delivering his message six days into the ongoing confrontation, Khamenei said, “This nation will never surrender.” He rebuked Trump’s ultimatum, stating, “America should know that any military intervention will undoubtedly result in irreparable damage”, news agency AFP reported
