President Donald Trump said on June 17 the U.S. knew exactly where Iran's Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, was "hiding", that he was an easy target but would not be killed, at least for now.
"We know exactly where the so-called “Supreme Leader” is hiding. He is an easy target, but is safe there - We are not going to take him out (kill!), at least not for now," Trump said in a post on Truth Social.
