US PresidentDonald Trump on Tuesday asked the Islamic Republic to "surrender unconditionally," and has stated that he knows the whereabouts of Iran's supreme leader, Ali Khamenei, but has not yet issued an order to kill him.

Khamenei, for his part, has warned the US today that it will suffer "irreparable damage" if it attacks its people and has ensured that Iran will not surrender.

Arrests of alleged Mosad agents in Iran

Finally, the Iranian authorities have been conducting several operations in recent days against alleged agents of the Israeli intelligence services (Mosad), with numerous arrests and the dismantling of a drone production workshop.

Dozens of people have been arrested since Monday and weapons, explosives and drones that Israel was allegedly producing to carry out attacks in Iran have also been seized, according to several Iranian media reports.

Iranian Parliament spokesman Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf said on Monday that most of Israel's attacks since early Friday morning are not direct attacks, but are being carried out "with the help of internal infiltration." That is why, in addition to launching missiles into Israel, Iran is seeking "traitors" in its territory and strengthening its defenses.
