Hassan Rasouli, a member of Iran’s Reformists’ Supreme Council for Policymaking, has told the country’s official IRNA news agency in an interview that US President Trump’s efforts to create a rift among Iranian officials are “psychological warfare”, Al Jazeera reports.

Rasouli told the news agency that, in his view, by instilling division and discord in the ranks of officials, US-Israeli forces are “trying to achieve victory without firing a single bullet”.
