Iranian people 'have unforgettable lessons to teach' US: Iran’s supreme leader

Iran's Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei said Tuesday that “the Iranian people and the Resistance Front have unforgettable lessons to teach the American enemy.”

Khamenei made the remarks in a brief statement released on his Telegram channel, his first comments following renewed escalation with the US on Tuesday evening.

Tensions between Tehran and Washington have remained high since a war began with strikes on Iran in late February.

A framework deal was signed in June through Pakistani and Qatari mediation.

The US began a two-week bombing campaign in July and reimposed a naval blockade after differences over navigation in the strait.
