Late Sunday night, Iran's Deputy Minister for Legal Affairs of the Ministry of Health announced that the Islamic Republic has filed a lawsuit against U.S. President Donald Trump.

The announcement comes amid an ongoing series of Iranian legal threats and symbolic actions against the Trump administration, which have included previous threats of prosecution and calls for international legal action.
