Iran

[ORAC]

The mid-morning attack, rather than midnight, seems to have been planned to catch the Iranians off guard and at their offices in an attempt at decapitation of the regime.

Israel says that it killed the head of Iran's IRGC, the Minister of Defense, Chairman of SPND, Khamenei's National Security Advisor, and Head of Khamenei's Military Bureau in a coordinated strike along with their senior staff.
