AI Situation Brief
US and Israeli strikes are reported to have killed Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, leading to immediate military escalation including Israeli strikes on Tehran, confirmed Iranian missile attacks near UK personnel, and reports of ballistic missile launches targeting Israeli cities.
