WANA (Mar 04) – The Secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council issued a rare and strongly worded message on social media, announcing that more than 500 U.S. forces had been killed in recent days and warning the President of the United States that “this story is not over.”

 

Ali Larijani wrote on his personal page on X that “Mr. Trump, through Netanyahu’s clownish behavior, dragged the American people into an unfair war with Iran. He should now calculate whether, with more than 500 American forces killed (in the past few days), it is still ‘America First’ or ‘Israel First.’”

 

Emphasizing that “this story is not over,” he added: “The martyrdom of Imam Khamenei will come at a heavy price for you, God willing.”

 

In his message, the Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council, while announcing the reported number of U.S. casualties in recent days, held Donald Trump and the Israeli Prime Minister responsible for the current situation, describing their approach as the factor that pushed the United States into what he called an “unjust war” against Iran.
