Donald Trump gestures as he gets into a vehicle with the assistance of U.S. Secret Service personnel after he was shot in the right ear during a campaign rally at the Butler Farm Show in Butler, Pennsylvania, US, July 13, 2024.

Ali Larijani, the secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, told the state TV on Saturday that the Islamic Republic will not "leave Trump alone" over his killing of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.

“Trump got a taste of what happened in Venezuela and liked it, thinking he could quickly do the same in Iran. Now he’s stuck," Larijani said.

"We will not leave him alone. He must pay the price for what he did. He killed our leader and martyred more than 1,000 of our people. This is not a simple matter.”

"We won't leave him alone until reciprocating what he did," he reiterated in a post on his X account.
