Iranian Envoy Claims US President Told Tehran He Doesn't Want to Attack: 'Trump Doesn't Want a War'

Iran's envoy to Pakistan said Trump conveyed he does not want war and urged Iran not to target US interests amid escalating protests and a crackdown with over 10,000 arrests.

  • IRINN aired footage of the July 13, 2024 Butler shooting with the caption `This time, it won't miss.`
  • Rising tensions tied to long-standing grievances intensified after the U.S. killing of Qassem Soleimani and amid the Islamic Republic of Iran’s deadly crackdown on protests starting Dec. 28.
  • Translations published by MEMRI show Hassan Rahimpour-Azghadi urged capturing Trump and referenced arson, gunning down, and car-ramming as permissible attacks.
  • When reached for comment, the U.S. Secret Service told the Washington Examiner it was `aware` of the threat but declined to discuss intelligence, calling it another example of the Iranian regime's repeated threats.
  • An Iranian official said earlier this week about 2,000 people died in protests, HRANA verified 2,677 deaths, and Iran International estimated at least 12,000 amid an internet blackout since last Thursday.
