'We will kill Trump': Iranian rally poster threatens US President

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian discussed the possibility of his assassination on Tuesday, as concerns rise over potential fresh US military strikes. His comments came after US forces conducted limited strikes in the Strait of Hormuz and Qeshm Island on Monday, following reports that Iranian forces had fired at a US aircraft.

Pezeshkian emphasized that returning to war would benefit no one and reiterated Iran's commitment to resolving the conflict through dialogue, negotiation, and non-coercive measures. Nevertheless, he reaffirmed the Iranian people's unwavering resolve despite facing significant military and economic pressure. Iran is currently experiencing inflation nearing 90 percent, a collapsing currency, and reduced oil exports.

The President asserted that the enemy cannot achieve anything, even if they assassinate thousands of individuals like himself. He stated that Iran is prepared to take measures such as cutting off gas and electricity to certain regions to ensure the uninterrupted operation of production facilities.

Iranian officials have consistently maintained that the Strait of Hormuz will not reopen until Washington addresses Iran's conditions, including lifting naval blockades, easing oil sanctions, and ceasing military operations. According to a report by The New York Times, the US military is preparing for a possible strike on Iran, which could occur this week following the midterm elections.
