Trump Says He Is Number One on Iran's Kill List at NATO

Israel National News

President Donald Trump told reporters at the NATO summit in Ankara on Wednesday that he is number one on Iran's kill list and that Iran's leadership remained determined to target him personally, while defending the U.S. strike wave on Iran that Israel welcomed. Asked why he was flying home on a different aircraft than the Qatari-gifted plane, Trump said, I like being number one on TikTok better, but I'm number one on the list for killing, calling Iran's leaders scum and adding, I'm doing what's right for the country. Trump asserted Iran has no military left and its air force is gone after U.S. strikes on more than 80 Iranian targets, and threatened further attacks that night. The remarks landed as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Israel Katz held an urgent security consultation and the IDF raised readiness across the board.
