Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei congratulated Iranians for what he described as a victory over Israel and the United States, in defiant remarks published on state media that appeared to be his first public statement since U.S. war planes bombed three of the country’s nuclear facilities.

President Trump says U.S. officials will be talking with their Iranian counterparts next week in the wake of the U.S. strikes on Iran's nuclear sites, but questions remain about the extent of the damage to Iran's nuclear program.
