US President Donald Trump said the war with Iran is “very complete”, claiming that the country’s naval, air and communications capabilities have been destroyed, and revealing that he has someone in mind to replace the new Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei if he is assassinated.

Speaking in remarks reported by US media, Trump said: “I think the war is very complete, pretty much. They have no navy, no communications, no air force.”

He added that he has “somebody in mind to replace Mojtaba Khamenei”, but did not reveal the person’s identity.

Separately, Western media reported that Trump had told his advisers he would be ready to support the assassination of the new Iranian Supreme Leader if he refuses to meet US demands.

According to The Wall Street Journal, citing US officials on Monday, Trump told aides he would back the killing of Khamenei if he declined to comply with American demands, including ending Iran’s nuclear programme.

However, the newspaper said that Israel — not the United States — would be expected to carry out any direct assassination of the Iranian leader.

Trump has blamed Iran for the mass killing at Shajareh Tayyebeh primary school but geolocation, videos and satellite imagery indicate otherwise

The bombing of a primary school in Minab on 28 February killed scores of people, most of them seven- to 12-year-old girls. The strike is the worst mass killing of the US and Israel’s war on Iran so far – and has been described by Unesco as a “grave violation” of international law.

On Saturday, the US president, Donald Trump, declared that Iran was responsible for the school bombing. “In my opinion, based on what I’ve seen, that was done by Iran … they’re very inaccurate, as you know, with their munitions. They have no accuracy whatsoever. It was done by Iran.”

The president presented no evidence for his claim. His assertion has not been repeated by spokespeople for the US military, who have said only that they are “investigating” the bombing.

But a growing body of evidence indicates that the strike on the Shajareh Tayyebeh primary school was carried out by the US. Here is what we know – and why it points to the US being responsible.

Morning Star Editorial: Britain is drifting into Donald Trump’s war. That has to be stopped

 The son of a Lebanese soldier, cries as he sits on his father’s coffin who was killed by Israeli airstrikes, during a funeral procession in Khraibeh village, eastern Lebanon, March 8, 2026

…

Rudderless and unprincipled, Britain bobs along in the wake of a crazed US regime which is bulldozing the architecture of international law and the entire postwar system.

The shadow of fascism we see in the Trump administration’s brutal domestic record — especially the lethal violence inflicted on US cities by the Ice agency — looms in its foreign policy too.

We know that Marco Rubio at the Munich Security Conference cited the end of the second world war as the moment European greatness died and its “vast empires” began their retreat before “godless communist revolutions and anti-colonial uprisings.”

We know that Trump has resumed the open celebration of conflict characteristic of fascism, renaming the Defence Secretary the Secretary of War; and that that Secretary of War Pete Hegseth says openly and repeatedly that the US no longer cares about the legality of its conduct.

This year, so far, has been one of uninterrupted US aggression on multiple fronts. And if Donald Trump is not stopped, that aggression will keep escalating until we are faced with world war between nuclear powers.

Ignore the ranting Islamophobes of the right: it is not the anti-war left repeating Neville Chamberlain’s policy of appeasement. Trump’s United States is the rampaging power threatening world peace. The appeasers are those who won’t stand up to him.

So it is important to be clear. Victory for the US and Israel in Iran would be far more dangerous for the world than any other outcome in this war.

That is nothing to do with sympathising with the Iranian state or political system. It is simply acknowledging the reality that if Trump wins he is going to start more and bigger wars: and this one is already engulfing much of the Middle East.

So we must challenge the despatch of British ships to the Gulf, the use of British bases to attack Iran and any engagement of British forces in this war. We are assisting a calamitous project that threatens the whole world.

The public are with us; some MPs, though not enough, are speaking out. But it will take a political revolution to detach Britain from the US war machine. That should now be a priority task for everyone on the left.

Swiss Defense Minister Martin Pfister criticized the United States and Israel for airstrikes against Iran, saying their actions, along with those of Tehran, violated international law, Sonntags Zeitung newspaper reported on Sunday, Anadolu reports.

“The Americans and Israel have attacked Iran from the air. In doing so, they, like Iran, have violated international law,” Pfister said, calling on the warring parties to cease violence and protect the civilian population.

He also warned that Europe could be drawn into the conflict, not only through conventional military engagement but through asymmetric warfare such as terrorist attacks.

“There is a risk of terrorist attacks in Switzerland. In addition, the war could trigger a wave of refugees that will also reach us,” Pfister said.

While he does not believe Switzerland is directly threatened by Iranian long‑range missiles, Pfister said the possibility of collateral damage cannot be ruled out.

“We currently have nothing to defend against long-range attacks,” he said.

He stressed the need for a comprehensive approach to security that goes beyond purely military preparedness, citing the importance of police and intelligence services.

The minister said that threat assessments had been underestimated in recent decades, adding: “Our perfected society with its prosperity is still a long way from the current conflicts… This war, as bad as it is, could also trigger a rethink in this country, which is urgently needed.”

Tensions in the Middle East have soared since the US and Israel launched a large-scale attack on Iran on Feb. 28, killing more than 1,200 people to date, including Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, over 150 schoolgirls, and senior military officials.

Iran has retaliated with sweeping strikes targeting US bases, diplomatic facilities, and military personnel across the region, as well as multiple Israeli cities.
