US EditionTrump says Iran’s supreme leader Khamenei is dead, urges Iranians to ‘take back’ their country
- On Saturday, President Donald Trump declared Ayatollah Ali Khamenei dead and urged the Iranian people to seize a historic opportunity to reclaim their country.
- Operation Epic Fury, a joint U.S.-Israeli offensive, began early Saturday with strikes on Tehran, described by Trump as "heavy and pinpoint bombing" continuing "uninterrupted throughout the week."
- Iran has responded with 35 missiles launched at Israel and strikes targeting U.S. bases in Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, and Kuwait after a senior U.S. defense official said Khamenei was killed at a Tehran compound.
- The death raises the prospect of a succession crisis as Iran's constitution requires a council of clerics to choose a new leader, but analysts say recovery will take years amid leadership disarray and IRGC power.
- Trump offered immunity to members of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and told Axios on Saturday he has several "off ramps," including possible further attacks.
