How Do Iranians in Utah Feel About the Attack that Killed Ayatollah?
Joint U.S.-Israeli airstrikes kill Iran's supreme leader, leading to retaliatory attacks and damage to Gulf airports, including one fatality and seven injuries reported in Abu Dhabi.
- DUBAI/JERUSALEM/WASHINGTON, March 1 — United States and Israel said an air strike killed Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and Iranian state media confirmed his death on Saturday; Israel launched another wave of strikes on Sunday targeting missile and air-defense systems.
- U.S. President Donald Trump said the strikes aimed to end a decades-long threat and prevent Iran developing a nuclear weapon, while Israeli military operations weakened Tehran's proxy militias and warned of follow-up strikes if Iran pressed nuclear and ballistic missile programs.
- Iranian state media reported Khamenei's daughter, grandchild, daughter-in-law and son-in-law were killed, while videos showed celebrations in Tehran and Karaj neighbourhoods and a statue pulled down in Galleh Dar, Fars province.
- Iran responded by launching hundreds of missiles and drones on Saturday, hitting U.S. troops, Dubai's international airport and Burj Al Arab hotel, and Zayed International Airport, Abu Dhabi, causing one fatality and multiple injuries.
- Experts on Iran's political system caution that Khamenei's death is a major blow but won't end clerical rule or the Revolutionary Guards' sway, while China and U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres urged an immediate cessation of hostilities.
