Israeli minister warns Khamenei could face fate similar to Saddam Hussein

Jun 17, 2025, 11:11 GMT+1

Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz on Tuesday issued a warning to Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, suggesting he could suffer a fate similar to former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein.

"I warn the Iranian dictator from continuing to commit war crimes and fire missiles at Israeli citizens. He should remember what happened to the dictator in the country neighboring Iran who took this path against the State of Israel,” Katz said in a video from Israel's security headquarters.
