Despite earlier denials from Israeli officials regarding the Reuters report, multiple U.S. outlets—including ABC, Axios, CNN, Fox, and NBC—are now also reporting that President Donald Trump blocked an Israeli operation over the weekend aimed at assassinating Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei. A U.S. official told Axios, “We made it clear to the Israelis that President Trump opposes such an action. The Iranians haven’t killed any Americans, and targeting political leaders should not be part of the conversation.”
