🚨🚨Breaking News: The U.S. Launches the War… See More

The current war began on 28 February 2026, when U.S. and Israeli forces launched coordinated airstrikes deep into Iranian territory — hitting military sites, command posts, and air defense infrastructure in cities including Tehran, Isfahan, and Qom.

Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was reportedly killed in one of these strikes — a highly symbolic and destabilizing event that marked a sharp escalation in hostilities.

According to Pentagon and allied sources, the operation — part of what U.S. command has code‑named Operation Epic Fury — targeted ballistic missile launcher sites, drone bases, and underground facilities, as well as leadership compounds.

The U.S. and Israel justified the strikes as pre‑emptive measures against perceived threats from Iran’s missile and drone programs — claiming they were necessary to protect regional allies and deter future attacks.
