US says Iran's threatening language against Trump 'unwise' - Fox News

"Threatening language from the Iranian regime or its mouthpiece against the President, or any American, is unwise," Fox News Digital reported citing a State Department spokesperson, referring to threats by the Khamenei-linked newspaper Kayhan to kill Trump.

On Sunday, Iran’s ultra-hardline Kayhan newspaper, managed by a representative of the Supreme Leader, repeated weekend calls to assassinate Trump to avenge the 2020 killing of IRGC commander Qassem Soleimani.

Later in the day, Iran's Press Supervisory Board officially warned Kayhan over the threatening language, calling it an act against national interests.

"The board has issued an official warning to the editor-in-chief of a newspaper for violating the Article 6 of the Press Law, which explicitly prohibits the publication of content against the security, dignity, and interests of the Islamic Republic of Iran, whether domestically or abroad," a statement by the Board said without naming Kayhan.
