- On Saturday, U.S. and Israeli strikes killed Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, and state media confirmed his death early Sunday during a major military campaign against the Islamic regime.
- Amid a U.S. military buildup, protests and a crackdown began in December and crested on January 8 and 9, with HRANA recording more than 7,000 deaths.

- Iran launched retaliatory missile and drone strikes across the region, with air-raid sirens in Israel and Gulf countries reporting attacks, while a 40-day public mourning period starts today and United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres condemned all strikes Saturday.
- Analysts warn the killing could unsettle Iran's leadership and raise risks of wider regional escalation after weeks of military buildup and the Pentagon 'Epic Fury' and Israeli 'Roaring Lion' strikes.
