Trump Claims Iran Nears Surrender in G7 Call; Iran's Leader Vows Continued Resistance

During a virtual G7 meeting, US President Donald Trump claimed Iran was "about to surrender" and hailed Operation Epic Fury as a major success, asserting he had eliminated a significant threat. However, Iran's newly appointed Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei contradicted this, vowing continued resistance and revenge, including threats to keep the Strait of Hormuz closed. G7 leaders urged Trump to end the conflict swiftly and secure the strategic waterway amid ongoing regional tensions and attacks on tankers.
