U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday said Iran gave the United States notice prior to shooting missiles at its military base in Qatar, which he said made it possible for no lives to be lost.
"I am pleased to report that NO Americans were harmed, and hardly any damage was done. Most importantly, they've gotten it all out of their 'system,' and there will, hopefully, be no further HATE," Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social.
"Perhaps Iran can now proceed to Peace and Harmony (JO:HARJ) in the Region, and I will enthusiastically encourage Israel to do the same," Trump added
Iranian leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei says that his country "will not submit to anyone's harassment" after Iran launched retaliatory missiles at U.S. bases in the Middle East.
"We didn't harm anyone," Khamenei said on X, according to a Google translation.
"And we will not accept any harassment from anyone under any circumstances. And we will not submit to anyone's harassment," he wrote.
"This is the logic of the Iranian nation."
Trump said Iran gave the U.S. "early notice" of its missile attack on an American military base in Qatar, "which made it possible for no lives to be lost, and nobody to be injured."
Trump thanked Iran for that heads up, but nevertheless called the retaliatory strike a "very weak response" that was "very effectively countered" by the U.S.
"Most importantly, they've gotten it all out of their "system," and there will, hopefully, be no further HATE," Trump wrote on Truth Social.
