Trump calls Khamenei’s death justice for Iranian people

Feb 28, 2026, 21:55 GMT+0Updated: 01:40 GMT+0

US President Donald Trump said on Saturday that the death of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei served as justice for Iranians, Americans and others around the world who were killed or maimed by him and his allies.

“This is not only Justice for the people of Iran, but for all Great Americans, and those people from many Countries throughout the World, that have been killed or mutilated by Khamenei and his gang of bloodthirsty THUGS,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social account.

Trump said the killing created what he called a rare opening for Iranians to “take back their Country,” adding he was hearing some members of Iran’s security forces no longer wanted to fight and were seeking immunity.

He said the United States would keep up “heavy and pinpoint bombing” for as long as needed to achieve “peace throughout the Middle East and, indeed, the world.”
