US EditionTrump vetoed Israeli plan to kill Iran's supreme leader: Report
- In June 2025, after Israeli officials disclosed a plan to assassinate Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, President Donald Trump rejected the proposal following briefings from his administration.
- The veto was intended to stop the plan from intensifying tensions between Israel and Iran, as the Trump administration aimed to prevent a broader regional war.
- Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared that Israeli military actions will persist until Iran’s nuclear facilities and missile stockpiles are dismantled, while President Trump cautioned Iran against launching attacks on American forces in the region.
- Trump warned that any aggression from Iran would be met with an unprecedented military response from the United States and expressed optimism that Israel and Iran would soon reach a peace agreement.
- The veto implies the U.S. under Trump preferred to contain the conflict through diplomacy and force deterrence rather than targeted assassination, reflecting ongoing tensions and complex regional security concerns.
