Iran’s supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has said that US President Donald Trump had sought to “minimise” the impact of Iran’s retaliatory strikes on a US base in Qatar, AFP reports.
Trump “tried … to pretend that nothing had happened, when a major event had occurred”, Khamenei said in a televised speech on state TV of Iran’s earlier attack on Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar — the largest US military facility in the Middle East.
Khamenei said the attack “caused damage”, while Trump has shrugged it off as “very weak”. No casualties were reported at the base.
