Israel says it has 'eliminated' Iran's new top military commander

In the early hours of Tuesday, the Israel Defense Forces confirmed they carried out a precise airstrike in central Tehran that killed Ali Shadmani, Iran’s newly appointed top military commander.
Five days prior, Supreme Leader Khamenei appointed Shadmani as the new leader following the death of Lt. Gen. Gholam Ali Rashid, who was killed in an Israeli airstrike on Friday.
The strike followed actionable intelligence within a broader Israeli strategy to disrupt Iran's military leadership and degrade its capacity to wage coordinated regional attacks.
On Monday night, President Trump warned on social media that "IRAN CAN NOT HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON" and urged Tehran residents to "immediately evacuate," while Reza Pahlavi called on Iran's military to reject the regime.
The assassination signals a continued Israeli campaign targeting Iran’s senior commanders amid ongoing hostilities and raises uncertainty over Shadmani’s successor.
