The United States and Israel launched an unprecedented joint attack on Iran with the stated intention to overthrow the Iranian regime Saturday.

Multiple U.S. and Israeli air strikes targeted a range of sites including Iran’s political leadership, military commanders and missile infrastructure. President Donald Trump announced on social media that Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei was killed in the strikes.
In response, Iran launched its own unprecedented wave of retaliation across the region, focusing not only on American bases but also civilian infrastructure. Iran’s President Masoud Pezeshkian called the attacks on his country “unprovoked and illegal,” and Iranian officials say that one strike hit a girls’ school in Iran, killing more than 100.
