Primary source Internal intake · 2 reviewed intake signals · Desk window 18:38–18:41

TL;DR

Iranian parliament member and National Security Committee member Mojtaba Zarei said Tuesday that regardless of any potential nuclear deal, US President Donald Trump should be executed four times—for the killing of Qassem Soleimani, the 12-day war and murder of Iranian commanders, the January unrest and deaths, and for the 'supreme leader martyr.' Zarei added: 'Whether there is a deal or not, in your term or after it, we will kill you.' The comments were reported by Iranian news channels.

01 · THE DISPATCH

Iranian MP Mojtaba Zarei, a member of the parliament's National Security Committee, issued a stark threat against US President Donald Trump on Tuesday evening. In a statement published by Iranian Telegram channels, Zarei called for Trump to be executed four times—each execution tied to a different grievance: the US assassination of Qassem Soleimani in 2020; the so-called '12-day war' and killing of Iranian commanders, a reference to the May 2026 limited conflict between Iran and the US/Israel; the deaths during the January 2026 unrest in Iran; and for the 'supreme leader martyr,' a term apparently referencing a killed senior Iranian figure. Zarei concluded by vowing to kill Trump regardless of any nuclear deal's outcome. The threat comes amid ongoing US-Iran tensions and nuclear negotiations, with the US president having recently urged Tehran to return to the negotiating table. The Zioneer has previously reported on Iranian hardline statements threatening the US, including a parliament spokesman's demand that the US 'surrender.' Zarei's remarks, while not representing official government policy, reflect the tone of Iran's hardline faction as talks continue.
