The U.S. President Donald Trump has issued a stark warning to Iran, demanding its “unconditional surrender” amid escalating conflict between Iran and Israel.
In a post on June 17, Trump declared that “Iran must cease all hostile activities and surrender unconditionally to the strength and demands of the civilized world. Our patience is not unlimited.”
The remarks come as Israeli-Iranian aerial hostilities enter their sixth consecutive day.
Taking to his social media platform, Truth Social, Trump added: “We know exactly where Iran’s Supreme Leader is hiding. We won’t strike—for now. But our patience is wearing thin. Surrender unconditionally.”
In response, Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei took to X (formerly Twitter) with a fiery rebuttal. He wrote: “With the help of Allah and a coming victory, Iran will defeat Israel. The war has begun. We will retaliate against Israel without mercy.”
The exchange marks a sharp escalation in rhetoric between the two long-time adversaries and reflects the increasing volatility of the Middle East amid deepening regional conflict.
