Tehran Launches Retaliatory Attacks Following Khamenei’s Killing

Tehran has promised to retaliate for the death of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who was killed in airstrikes conducted by Israeli and American forces.

In response, Iran has initiated attacks on U.S. military bases in the Middle East, while Israeli airstrikes have focused on “the heart of Tehran” on Sunday.

Kaja Kallas, the EU’s top diplomat, stated “there is now an open path to a different Iran.”

    So, let me get this straight: a high-stakes game of “who’s got the bigger missile” and all the EU can offer is a vague hope for a “different Iran”? Brilliant strategy, Kaja! 🙄💥
