The 86-year-old, a skilled orator known for his forceful addresses to the country\u2019s more than 90 million people, appeared and sounded more tired than he had just a week ago, speaking in a hoarse voice and occasionally stumbling over his words.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The speech, which went on for more than 10 minutes, was filled with warnings and threats directed toward the United States and Israel, the Islamic Republic\u2019s longtime adversaries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The supreme leader downplayed Sunday\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/news\/your-military\/2025\/06\/22\/how-the-us-bombarded-iranian-nuclear-sites-while-avoiding-detection\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer\" title=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/news\/your-military\/2025\/06\/22\/how-the-us-bombarded-iranian-nuclear-sites-while-avoiding-detection\/\">U.S. strikes on three Iranian nuclear sites<\/a> using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/news\/your-military\/2025\/06\/22\/here-are-the-bunker-buster-bombs-used-on-irans-fordo-nuclear-facility\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer\" title=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/news\/your-military\/2025\/06\/22\/here-are-the-bunker-buster-bombs-used-on-irans-fordo-nuclear-facility\/\">bunker-buster bombs<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.navytimes.com\/naval\/2025\/06\/25\/heres-the-role-an-ohio-class-submarine-played-in-the-strikes-on-iran\/#:~:text=Powered%20by%20a%20nuclear%20reactor,and%20around%20144%20enlisted%20personnel.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer\" title=\"https:\/\/www.navytimes.com\/naval\/2025\/06\/25\/heres-the-role-an-ohio-class-submarine-played-in-the-strikes-on-iran\/#:~:text=Powered%20by%20a%20nuclear%20reactor,and%20around%20144%20enlisted%20personnel.\">cruise missiles<\/a>, saying that U.S. President Donald Trump \u2014 who said the attack \u201ccompletely and fully obliterated Iran\u2019s nuclear program \u2014 had \u201cexaggerated\u201d its impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThey could not achieve anything significant,\u201d Khamenei said.

U.S. accounts of it as a limited attack with no casualties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">UN nuclear watchdog confirms damage to Iran sites<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The head of the U.N. nuclear watchdog, International Atomic Energy Agency Director Rafael Grossi, reiterated on Thursday that the damage done by Israeli and U.S. strikes at Iranian nuclear facilities \u201cis very, very, very considerable.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI think annihilated is too much, but it suffered enormous damage,\u201d Grossi told French broadcaster RFI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Iran\u2019s Foreign Ministry spokesman, Esmail Baghaei, on Wednesday also conceded that \u201cour nuclear installations have been badly damaged, that\u2019s for sure.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Khamenei has not been seen in public since taking shelter in a secret location after the outbreak of the war on June 13 when Israel attacked Iranian nuclear facilities and targeted top military commanders and scientists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Following Sunday\u2019s U.S. attack on Iran\u2019s nuclear facilities, Trump was able to help negotiate a ceasefire that came into effect on Tuesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Iranian leader warns US against further attacks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Khamenei claimed the U.S. had only intervened in the war because \u201cit felt that if it did not intervene, the Zionist regime would be utterly destroyed.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt entered the war to save them, yet it gained nothing,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He said his country\u2019s attack on the U.S. base in Qatar on Monday was significant, since it shows Iran \u201chas access to important U.S. centers in the region and can act against them whenever it deems necessary.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe Islamic Republic was victorious and, in retaliation, delivered a hand slap to America\u2019s face,\u201d he said, adding,

after airstrikes, CENTCOM warns<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"smg-interstitial-link__excerpt\">President Donald Trump\u2019s nominee to lead U.S. Central Command said Iran still has &#039;considerable tactical capabilities&#039; of concern to national security. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/aside>\n\t\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump has dismissed the Monday retaliatory attack as a \u201cvery weak response,\u201d saying that the U.S. had been warned by Iran in advance and stressing that there had been no casualties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since the ceasefire, life has been gradually returning to normal in Iran. On Thursday, Iran partially reopened its airspace, which had been shut down since the war began, and shops in Tehran\u2019s capital began to reopen, with traffic returning to the streets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">With the ceasefire, life slowly returns to normal in Iran<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Majid Akhavan, spokesperson for the Ministry of Roads and Urban Development, said Iran had reopened its airspace for the eastern half of the country to domestic and international flights, including those transiting Iranian airspace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Earlier this week, Tehran said 606 people had been killed in the conflict in Iran, with 5,332 people wounded. The Washington-based Human Rights Activists group released figures Wednesday suggesting Israeli strikes on Iran had killed at least 1,054 and wounded 4,476.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The group, which has provided detailed casualty figures from multiple rounds of unrest in Iran, said 417 of those killed were civilians and 318 were security forces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At least 28 people were killed in Israel and more than 1,000 wounded, according to officials there. During the 12-day war, Iran fired more than 550 missiles at Israel with a 90% interception rate, according to new statistics released by Israeli authorities on Thursday. Israel, meantime, hit more than 720 Iranian military infrastructure targets and eight nuclear-related sites, Israel said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump has also asserted that American and Iranian officials will talk next week, giving rise to cautious hope for longer-term peace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Iran has not acknowledged that any such talks would take place, though U.S. Mideast envoy Steve Witkoff has said there has been direct and indirect communication between the countries. A sixth round of U.S.-Iran negotiations was scheduled for earlier this month in Oman but was canceled after Israel attacked Iran on June 13.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Iran has insisted that it will not give up its nuclear program. In a vote underscoring the tough path ahead, its parliament agreed Wednesday to fast-track a proposal that would effectively stop the country\u2019s cooperation with the IAEA, which has monitored the program for years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><i>Associated Press writer John Leicester in Paris and Natalie Melzer in Nahariya, Israel, contributed to this
