WASHINGTON— President Donald Trump asserted Monday that Iran’s Supreme Leader,Mojtaba Khamenei,is “90% gone” in the wake of an extensive, multi-wave American air and missile campaign, delivering an uncorroborated assessment of the cleric’s physical condition as the military confrontation between Washington and Tehran escalates to unprecedented thresholds.
The remarks,delivered as United States Central Command (CENTCOM) prosecutes high-intensity combat sorties against command nodes and missile infrastructure across the Islamic Republic,represent the most direct claim by an American commander-in-chief regarding the targeted vulnerability of Iran’s clerical and military apex.
