Trump Says US Decapitated Iranian Leadership As They Ate Breakfast
President Donald Trump said Monday the initial strikes targeting Iran killed dozens of Iranian leaders during a breakfast meeting with Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
Trump confirmed Khamenei’s death in a post on Truth Social Saturday, hours after he announced the commencement of Operation Epic Fury early that morning. “Special Report” host Bret Baier told “America’s Newsroom” co-hosts Bill Hemmer and Dana Perino that Trump was “pleased” with the progress of Operation Epic Fury.
“I said this is, it’s a tough succession plan in Iran. He said 49 L is deep, it’s very deep. When they met, they met for breakfast. They assumed it was good for a lot of reasons,” Baier said. “’Number one, they didn’t think we knew, but you never attack in the morning, having to do with winds and sun and a lot of things. It just, it was amazing that we knew everything we knew,’ he said there is a plan.”
On Monday, CENTCOM reported that a fourth American servicemember had died from wounds suffered in the initial Iranian attacks.
