The U.S.-Israeli campaign against Iran escalates, with Tehran confirming a new hardline leader amid ongoing strikes. Nearly 2,000 targets have been hit, focusing on air defenses, missiles, and drones.

Mojtaba Khamenei, son of the former supreme leader, has risen to power, reiterating that strikes will continue until unconditional surrender. President Trump claims the war is ahead of schedule.

Travelers and Americans stranded in the region face challenges as the conflict spreads, with U.S. forces maintaining pressure on Iranian infrastructure.
