Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz said Monday that chants of 'Death to Trump' at the funeral of Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei expose the 'true nature' of the Iranian regime. Katz also reiterated that Israel is prepared to defend itself at any time and against any threat, according to i24NEWS.
Katz's comments come as the funeral of Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei continues in Tehran, where speakers have repeatedly called for the assassination of US President Donald Trump. The Zioneer has reported that the funeral saw chants of 'Death to America' and explicit threats against Trump. Former Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was also recorded at the funeral, according to the report. Katz's statement underscores Israel's readiness in the face of heightened Iranian rhetoric.
