US EditionTrump ‘Could Kill Ayatollah’s Son to Topple Iranian Regime’

- Israel's government is preparing for possible joint military action with the US, two Israeli officials warned the gaps with Tehran appear unbridgeable, and oil-producing Gulf countries brace for confrontation.
- Amid domestic unrest in Iran, thousands of demonstrators were killed in Tehran, and at least 20 anti-regime protests were held on Friday during the 40-day mourning period.
