Iran has launched hundreds of missiles and suicide drones at Dubai, and explosions have been heard in Saudi Arabia's capital, as its onslaught across the Middle East continues after the assassination of its Supreme Leader.
Tehran has expanded its bombardment and vowed to unleash its 'most intense offensive operation in history', amid fierce warnings to back down from Israel and the US, and missiles striking the 'heart' of its capital today.
The revenge strikes follow confirmation from Iran that Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was killed by the joint US-Israeli strikes, along with four of his family members and at least two high-level military leaders.
It comes as...
Israel and the USA launched joint airstrikes on targets in Iran
Iran confirmed the death of its Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei
Trump and Netanyahu urged Iranians to rise up and overthrow the government
Iran launched retaliatory strikes at states across the Middle East, going after US military bases and other targets
Trump warned the US would respond powerfully to further bombardment and that the operation could last weeks
Iranian missiles and suicide drones continue batter the Middle East for a second day, with more states targeted
