President Trump has warned the Iranians not to retaliate for the strikes that killed its Supreme Leader and 39 other top officials.
On Sunday morning, Trump posted to Truth Social that, "Iran just stated that they are going to hit very hard today, harder than they have ever hit before. THEY BETTER NOT DO THAT, HOWEVER, BECAUSE IF THEY DO, WE WILL HIT THEM WITH A FORCE THAT HAS NEVER BEEN SEEN BEFORE!"
Trump's warning came after the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said earlier Sunday that it would launch its “most-intense offensive operation,” beginning in “moments.”
Meantime, at least six people were killed and 8 others injured after hundreds of protesters stormed the U.S. Consulate in Karachi, Pakistan, on Sunday.
About 500 Shiite Muslims gathered at the consulate to protest the joint attack on Iran by the U.S. and Israel, The Associated Press reported, smashing windows and clashing with security forces.
