Mojtaba Khamenei issued a written statement promising revenge against those he considers murderers,promising that Iran will retaliate against enemies. This rhetoric appears to threaten both the U.S. and President Donald Trump personally, prompting trump to assert that the U.S. military is prepared to strike Iran decisively if he is targeted. The U.S. also demanded Iran open the Strait of Hormuz, but Iran maintains sole authority over the waterway. Recent Iranian actions in the Strait are attributed to sabotage by Iranian Revolutionary Guard units aiming to undermine the ceasefire. The situation remains tense, with threats of escalation from both sides.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<article class=\"fn-body\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/mojtaba-khamenei\/\" type=\"post_tag\" id=\"21453\">Mojtaba Khamenei<\/a> promised on Saturday that <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/iran\/\" type=\"post_tag\" id=\"100\">Iran<\/a> will strike back for the deaths of his father, Ayatollah <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/ali-khamenei\/\" type=\"post_tag\" id=\"2865\">Ali Khamenei<\/a>, and all other Iranians killed during the war with the U.S. and <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/israel\/\" type=\"post_tag\" id=\"219\">Israel<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The former Supreme Leader\u2019s funeral took place over the course of six days, with millions of mourners gathering to grieve their leader\u2019s death.
