Killing Supreme Leader Khamenei

The United States and Israel carried out coordinated airstrikes on Iran over the weekend, resulting in the confirmed death of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and several top security officials. President Donald Trump described the operation as a decisive blow to Iran's nuclear program and called for regime change, urging Iranians to rise up against the Islamic Republic. Iran retaliated with missile and drone attacks, killing three US soldiers at a base in Kuwait and wounding five others. The strikes have escalated regional tensions, with Hezbollah in Lebanon launching missiles at Israel in response, widening the conflict. Oil prices surged globally, stock markets dipped, and airlines canceled flights to Europe, US, and Canada due to airspace risks. World leaders, including those in Europe and Canada, urged restraint, while the EU reinforced its Red Sea naval mission. Trump stated the campaign could last four to five weeks if needed, offering conflicting visions for Iran's future governance. Protests erupted in New York against US involvement. This marks one of the most significant US military actions in the Middle East in recent years, raising fears of broader war
