President Trump dismissed threats from Iran's top national-security official, Ali Larijani, who posted on social media earlier Saturday that Mr. Trump must "pay the price" for the U.S.-Israel strikes on Iran.

Axar.az reports, in a phone interview with CBS, President Donald Trump said: "I have no idea what he's talking about, who he is. I couldn't care less," adding that Larijani has "already been defeated."

Mr. Trump also pushed back against the latest wave of critical statements from Larijani and other Iranian leaders, calling them weak and increasingly diminished in the region.

He reiterated that the U.S. strikes will continue as he demands an "unconditional surrender" from Iran.
