AAMER MADHANI and WILL WEISSERT.

President Donald Trump is scoffing at Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s heated warning to the U.S. not to launch future strikes on Iran and the Iranian supreme leader’s assertion that Tehran “won the war” with Israel. The U.S. president leader spoke out on Friday after Khamenei a day earlier insisted Tehran had delivered a “slap to America’s face” by striking a U.S. air base in Qatar and warned against further attacks by the U.S. or Israel on Iran. Trump says the ayatollah’s comments defied reality after 12 days of Israeli strikes and the U.S. bombardment of three key nuclear sites inflicted severe damage on Iran’s nuclear program. Trump said of Khamenei, “You got beat to hell.”
