ABC新闻华府首席特派员卡尔（Jonathan Karl）2日在X贴文说，他晚间与美国总统川普通话时，川普就伊朗最高领袖哈米尼之死，表示「我赶在他得手前，先收拾了他。他们试了两次，但是是我先得手」。
川普指的是，美国情治单位相信，伊朗当局试图在2024年解决川普。
In another phone call this evening, President Trump told me this about the death of Ayatollah Khamenei:
"I got him before he got me. They tried twice. Well I got him first."
That’s a reference to what US intelligence believes was a plot to kill Trump in 2024.
