Iran's supreme leader delivers first video message since US strikes

Iran's supreme leader Ali Khamenei has said the United States gained nothing from its attacks on the country's nuclear sites. Ayatollah Khamenei, in his first video statement since the end of the conflict, said it had been little more than showmanship by President Trump. The Iranian leader has been in hiding since Israel launched its attacks. He also said future attacks against Iran would come at great cost.
