Trump Says Iran Military Leaders Killed in Tehran Strike

Trump said a Truth Social video showed a massive strike in Tehran that killed many Iranian military officials, but officials have not confirmed the casualties.

  • On Saturday, President Donald Trump claimed a "massive strike" in Tehran killed a significant number of Iranian military officials, sharing a video on Truth Social purportedly showing the aftermath.
  • Trump issued a stark ultimatum to Iran on Saturday, stating the Islamic Republic has 48 hours to strike a deal or reopen the strategic Strait of Hormuz "before all hell will rain down on them."
  • The 35th day of Operation Epic Fury follows joint U.S. and Israeli strikes that killed Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei on Feb. 28, with dozens of other regime leaders eliminated since.
  • Officials have not released additional details about casualties, and independent confirmation remains limited; critics like The Atlantic's David Brooks argued on Friday that the U.S. is "losing every day," claiming NATO is in "shreds."
  • Reuters reported that Israel is preparing to attack Iranian energy facilities while awaiting a green light from the Trump administration. Trump previously extended a pause on such strikes for 10 days until Monday, April 6, 2026.
