Iran's Supreme Leader Warns US of Consequences, Calls Trump’s MoU Signature InvalidPreviousNext

Iran's Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei warned the United States of "unforgettable lessons" if attacks continue, criticizing US President Donald Trump's signature on a recent memorandum of understanding (MoU) as "worthless and invalid." The MoU, signed about a month ago to halt hostilities, is now suspended by Iran, citing repeated US violations. The warnings come amid ongoing exchanges of strikes between the two countries, raising concerns over escalating conflict and the collapse of a ceasefire agreement.
