Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali.........>

MIDEAST: Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei warned that a "harsh

retaliation is waiting" for the U.S. Iranian state TV carried a statement by

Khamenei also calling Soleimani "the international face of resistance." Khamenei

declared three days of public mourning for the general's death. Also, an adviser

to Iran's President Hassan Rouhani warned President Donald Trump of retaliation

from Tehran. "Trump through his gamble has dragged the U.S. into the most

dangerous situation in the region," Hessameddin Ashena wrote on the social media

app Telegram. "Whoever put his foot beyond the red line should be ready to face

its consequences." Iranian state television later in a commentary called Trump's

order to kill Soleimani "the biggest miscalculation by the U.S." in the years

since World War II. "The people of the region will no longer allow Americans to

stay," the TV said.
