'Main KILLERS Of Iran...’: Iran Hits Back At Trump, Calls Him And Netanyahu Key Conspirators

Iran has sharply responded to U.S. President Donald Trump's online message of support for Iranian protesters.

Ali Larijani, Secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, replied on social media, saying,
"We announce the names of the main killers of the people of Iran:

1. Trump

2. Netanyahu."

His statement came soon after Trump's post on Truth Social, where the U.S. president had called on Iranian citizens to continue their protests against the government.

Trump wrote,
"Iranian Patriots, KEEP PROTESTING - TAKE OVER YOUR INSTITUTIONS! Save the names of the killers and abusers. They will pay a big price. HELP IS ON ITS WAY."

Trump also said that he had cancelled all meetings with Iranian officials until the violent crackdown on demonstrators ends.

Growing Tensions and Rising Death Toll

Iran has been witnessing large-scale protests for weeks, driven by severe economic problems and rising dissatisfaction with the government. These demonstrations have become one of the biggest challenges for Iran's leadership in years.

Reports suggest that nearly 2,000 people have been killed during the unrest. This is the first time an Iranian official has mentioned an overall death toll since the protests began. However, the official did not share further details about the casualties.

According to the U.S.-based human rights group HRANA, around 1,850 of the deaths were protesters. The organization also said that over 16,700 people have been detained, marking a significant rise in arrests in just a few days.

Trump's Pressure on Iran

President Trump has been increasing political and economic pressure on Iran. He recently announced a 25% tariff on products from any country that continues to do business with Iran. The move, he said, was aimed at punishing nations that support Tehran despite ongoing violence against protesters.

Trump also hinted that military action remains one of the options under consideration if the Iranian government continues its crackdown. His statement has further heightened tensions between the U.S. and Iran, with Tehran accusing Washington and Israel of trying to destabilize the country through outside interference.
