Iran’s media watchdog warns hardline newspaper that threatened Trump
World | The newspaper, which is often described as the mouthpiece of Khamenei himself, has come under international scrutiny after it published an article openly endorsing violence against Trump.
Iran's Press Supervisory Board has issued a warning to the hardline Kayhan newspaper, which triggered a political storm for publishing a column that threatened US President Donald Trump, reported state media.
The newspaper, which is often described as the mouthpiece of Khamenei himself, has come under international scrutiny after it published an article openly endorsing violence against Trump.
“He’s way out of line! Any day now, in revenge for the blood of Martyr Soleimani, a few bullets are going to be fired into that empty skull of his, and he’ll be drinking from the chalice of a cursed death,” the paper wrote.
It added, “he makes threats and then backs down! The result? The situation in America gets worse by the day. Just yesterday, it was announced that his actions have caused $3 trillion in damage to the US economy.”
