Former President Donald Trump made a statement regarding Iran on his social media platform, Truth Social. Trump's comments followed public calls for his death during the final funeral ceremony for late Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

Trump's statement on Truth Social also came after U.S. officials requested that Iran issue a public declaration affirming the Strait of Hormuz was open for maritime traffic.
