On the morning of February 28, the United States, jointly with Israel, launched a military operation against Iran. President Donald Trump, in an address to the nation, explained the American and Israeli strikes on the Islamic Republic as a result of "exhausted patience" due to Tehran's unwillingness to abandon its nuclear ambitions.
Many cities in Iran were attacked, including the capital. One of the strikes hit the residence of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, and he did not survive. In response, Tehran struck Israel and American military bases in the Middle East with missiles and drones.
