The Middle East has entered one of its most dangerous chapters in decades. In a dramatic escalation of regional hostilities, the United States and Israel launched a massive coordinated military offensive against Iran that targeted top political and military leadership across the country. Israeli officials, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, have publicly stated there are âmany signsâ that Iranâs Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei may have been killed in the strikes â though Tehran has denied the claims and global authorities are still seeking independent confirmation.
This developing story is not only reshaping geopolitics and global markets but also potentially marking a turning point in U.S.âIranâIsrael relations, with world leaders urgently calling for de-escalation even as Iran retaliates across the region and tensions continue to mount.
Unbelievable videos coming from Iran. Absolute joy has spread through the streets of Iran when Khameneiâs death was announced. Historic! pic.twitter.com/GydIFT9djE
