50 Israeli jets struck Iran Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei’s underground military bunker; IDF shares video

The Israeli Defence Forces shared a footage showing of air strikes on Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei claiming that 50 Israeli jets dismantled the underground military bunker in Tehran.

Khamenei was eventually killed in the strikes on February 28."50 Israeli Air Force fighter jets dismantled Ali Khamenei’s underground military bunker beneath the Iranian regime’s leadership compound in Tehran," IDF said sharing the ariel footage.

Fresh strikes hit Iran and Lebanon on Friday as Israel pledged to escalate the conflict into a new phase of the Middle East war, which has rapidly expanded across the region and beyond.

Now in its seventh day, the war has drawn in global powers, disrupted the world’s energy and transport sectors, and spread turmoil even to areas of the region that are usually relatively calm. Loud explosions echoed across the skies over Iran’s capital, Tehran, early Friday as Israel said it was targeting “regime infrastructure” in the city. Internet connectivity has dropped to around one percent, according to monitoring group Netblocks, severely restricting information about how the war is affecting ordinary Iranians. In Tehran, normally congested roads have largely emptied, but residents told AFP that security forces are maintaining tight control over the population.
