The bold claim follows the launch of hypersonic missiles in what Iran calls 'Operation Honest Promise 3.' While Israel's missile defense systems have intercepted many incoming attacks, some Iranian missiles have breached and caused damage. Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei has vowed to show 'no mercy' in response to Israeli aggression. #IranIsraelConflict #MiddleEastWar #ballisticmissiles #NoMercy #IDFStrikes #BreakingNews #khamenei #TehranUnderFire #IsraelUnderAttack #MissileWar

Iran Israel attack highlights: Trump approved Iran attack plans behind closed doors, report claims
Israel Iran attack news highlights: The conflict between Iran and Israel entered its sixth day with full force as both the nations traded missile strikes on Wednesday. Track live updates of Iran-Israel conflict here. As the conflict escalates, Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei stated that Israel has 'made a huge mistake' and will be 'punished' for its attack on Iran. Meanwhile, Israel has launched fresh attacks against Tehran. ...Read More US President Donald Trump on the other hand, stated that iran has 'no air defence systems and are defenceless' as he hinted towards strikes against the country. During the early hours of Wednesday, sirens sounded across Israel twice within an hour as Iran launched strikes, said the Israel Defence Forces. Sirens sounded again in northern Israel due to a hostile aircraft infiltration. The strikes come even after United States President Donald Trump asked for 'unconditional surrender' by Iran. Trump also said that they know the location of Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei but will not kill him, at least for now, adding that the US does not want missiles shot at civilians, or American soldiers. 'Our patience is wearing thin,' said Trump. The conflict between Iran and Israel is now seeing more active participation from the United States as it is deploying more fighter jets and other warplanes to the Middle East, Reuters reported citing three US officials. Trump also met with his National Security Council on Tuesday afternoon after leaving the G7 summit a day early to discuss what is happening in the Middle East. However, the details of the meeting are not yet known. Ever since Israel took Iran by surprise and launched 'Operation Rising Lion' against it by attacking its nuclear and military sites on Friday, Iran has lost several key commanders considered close to Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who now finds himself isolated. The loss of senior Revolutionary Guards officials—those most trusted by the Supreme Leader—has created a significant strategic vacuum, reported Reuters citing five individuals familiar with the inner workings of Khamenei's circle. Iran Israel conflict | Key points The conflict between Iran and Israel started after the latter launched a series of surprise strikes against Iranian military and nuclear infrastructure under 'Operation Rising Lion' last Friday. Israel justified its actions by saying that Iran was very close to building nuclear weapons which puts Israel's security in jeopardy. United States President Donald Trump has also maintained that he does not want Iran to have nuclear weapons, a stance echoed by the G7 leaders who were hosted in Canada. The US is getting actively involved in the Middle East conflict as Trump said that they have 'complete and total control of the skies over Iran' on Tuesday. Though US forces have not launched any offensive against Iran yet, they are positioned in defensive positions in the region. So far, Iran has reported 224 deaths because of the ongoing conflict while Israel said 24 of its civilians have been killed.

Trump hints at Iran strike as West Asia conflict enters seventh day
US officials are now preparing for a possible strike on Iran in the coming days, as tensions flare up in West Asia following six days of missile attacks between Israel and Iran. According to a Bloomberg report, Washington is assembling the infrastructure it might need to enter into a direct conflict with Tehran. Citing sources, the report, however, added that since the situation is still evolving, there is a possibility that it could change. While some officials have hinted at the possibility of a weekend strike, others said that leaders at federal agencies have started getting ready for an attack. The development comes hours after Trump told reporters that his patience with Iran has run out and he 'may or may not' strike Iran. Speaking at the White House, Trump said, "There's a big difference between now and a week ago. Nobody knows what I'm going to do." Reiterating his stance that Iran cannot have nuclear weapons, Trump wished Iran's Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, "good luck". This comes after he claimed that he had told Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to keep going. On Wednesday, Khamenei, in a statement, warned the US that joining the Israeli strikes now targeting the Islamic Republic will result in irreparable damage for them, Associated Press reported. The statement came after Trump sought " unconditional surrender" from Iran and, in a post, claimed that he knew where Khamenei was hiding. However, Trump claimed that the US will not kill him for now. Trump has recently changed his stance on the ongoing conflict between Israel and Iran. A week ago, when the conflict escalated, Trump was urging for diplomacy to reach a deal with Tehran on nuclear disarmament. The report suggests that waiting for a few days before striking Iran allows the latter additional runway to show Trump that they are willing to give up some uranium enrichment capabilities to deter a US attack. Israel–Iran conflict On 13 June, Israel launched 'Operation Rising Lion' and targeted nuclear sites in Iran's capital city, Tehran. The conflict escalated after tensions rose over Tehran's rapidly advancing nuclear programme. Following Israeli strikes, Iran retaliated, and the conflict has now entered its seventh day with no end in sight. Since Israel started striking Iran, at least 224 Iranians have lost their lives. Iran, on the other hand, has also fired 400 ballistic missiles and hundreds of drones at Israel, killing 24 people and injuring more than 800.
