00:00Today, the Israeli military also struck the Iranian capital.
00:03The Israeli military announced a large-scale strikes on the Iranian capital.
00:07The targets hit were military facilities, regime-linked command centers,
00:12intelligence and internal security hubs.
00:15Fresh explosions have rattled places in the Gulf,
00:18like Dubai, Doha, Abu Dhabi and Bahrain's capital, Manama.
00:24And now Iraq is pulled into the fight.
00:26Three strikes have hit a military base in Jarf al-Nasar.
00:30The base houses Qateb Hezbollah, a powerful pro-Iran armed group.
00:34Iran defense systems also intercepted at least two drones in Erbil Airport.
00:39The U.S. military also announced a major blow.
00:41It said it had destroyed the headquarters of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.
00:46U.S. Central Command declared that the IRGC no longer has a headquarters.
00:52In Washington, President Donald Trump escalated the rhetoric.
00:55He vowed to avenge the death of three U.S. soldiers killed during the operations.
01:02Earlier today, CENTCOM shared the news that three U.S. military service members
01:07have been killed in action.
01:10As one nation, we grieve for the true American patriots
01:15who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our nation.
01:18Even as we continue the righteous mission for which they gave their lives,
01:24we pray for the full recovery of the wounded and send our immense love and eternal gratitude
01:31to the families of the fallen.
01:34And sadly, there will likely be more.
01:38Before it ends, that's the way it is.
01:41Likely be more.
01:42But we'll do everything possible where that won't be the case.
01:46But America will avenge their deaths and deliver the most punishing blow to the terrorists
01:52who have waged war against basically civilization.
01:57He warned that more casualties were likely.
02:00He called on Iranians to rise up, saying America is with you.
02:03He also warned Iran's Revolutionary Guards to surrender or face certain death.
02:09Trump said he ensaged a four-week military operation.
02:12Top U.S. officials are also set to brief the Congress,
02:15making the case for the campaign against Iran.
02:18Now, in Tehran, the response was defiant.
02:21Ali Larijani, head of Iran's Supreme National Security Council,
02:25accused Donald Trump of plunging the region into crisis.
02:29He called the U.S. president's action delusional fantasies.
02:32Several Arab allies have condemned Iran for launching strikes on Gulf states hosting U.S. troops.
02:37In fact, blasts were reported over Dubai.
02:40In a joint statement, they called the targeting of civilians and non-combatant countries
02:44reckless and destabilizing.
02:46The UAE has summoned Iran's ambassadors.
02:50Abu Dhabi is protesting recent missile and drone strikes.
02:53It says it targeted its territory.
02:56The country has also shut its embassy in Tehran.
02:59The Gulf Cooperation Council members also met via video link.
03:02They vowed to defend themselves and respond if necessary.
03:06If Jerusalem's seven people were injured after another missile barrage from Iran late on Sunday,
03:13emergency services rushed to the scene.
03:14Beyond the battlefield, global concerns mounted.
03:18Shipping giant, MASK, has suspended transit through the Strait of Hormuz and the Suez Canal
03:24for safety reasons.
03:25The move followed Iran's revolutionary guards declaring that the strait closed.
03:30The European Union warned of the heavy cost of a prolonged war.
03:33The EU foreign policy chief, Kaya Kallis, cautioned that a drawn-out conflict could threaten not just the West, but
03:40Europe and beyond.
03:42The EU is reinforcing its naval mission in the Red Sea with additional vessels.
03:47The United Kingdom stepped in as well.
03:49Prime Minister Keir Starmer said he allowed the US to use the UK bases for defensive strikes targeting Iranian missiles.
03:56The United States has requested permission to use British bases for that specific and limited defensive purpose.
04:10We have taken the decision to accept this request to prevent Iran firing missiles across the region, killing innocent civilians,
04:23putting British lives at risk and hitting countries that have not been involved.
04:30But he stressed Britain was not involved in the initial offensive and would not join offensive action.
04:37A supreme leader killed, missiles over Jerusalem, Beirut under fire.
04:42So what began as targeted strikes has now become a multi-front confrontation.
04:48Power doesn't end quietly.
04:52Some deaths are not accidents.
04:55They are messages.
04:56A gunshot.
04:59A crowd.
05:00A country frozen.
05:02The killer disappears.
05:05The questions don't.
05:07This is not just about who died.
05:09It's about what followed.
05:12Governments fell.
05:13Armies moved.
05:15History rewrote itself.
05:18Five leaders.
05:20Five moments.
05:22One pattern.
05:24The assassination.
05:29One pattern.
05:30One pattern.
05:33One pattern.
05:35One pattern.
05:36One pattern.
05:38One pattern.
05:40One pattern.
05:40One pattern.
05:41One pattern.
05:42One pattern.
05:43One pattern.
05:43One pattern.
05:46One pattern.
