Body choosing Khamenei successor bombed, Trump reveals strike was 'pretty substantial'

Iran’s powerful Assembly of Experts reportedly came under fire in Qom and Tehran as clerics met to choose a successor after Ayatollah Khamenei’s death. Reports claim senior religious figures were killed or wounded in night raids that now thrust the succession process onto the frontline of the war. As missiles and drones continue to fly between Iran and Israel, Tehran accuses Washington of aggression without “any imminent threat.” In a fiery response, Iran’s Foreign Ministry rejected U.S. demands and warned the region the conflict could widen beyond Iran’s borders.
