Iran retaliation: Commercial area of Dubai hit with attacks

After the United States and Israel launched a regime change operation against Iran on Saturday morning, footage emerging on social media and geolocated by CNN offered a window into its impacts.

The attacks have hit prominent Iranian military targets and have resulted in the killing of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, according to a Truth Social announcement from President Donald Trump. One strike killed scores of students in an elementary school in southern Iran, according to state media.

In retaliation, Tehran has carried out attacks across the Middle East. Footage from at least five Arab countries that host US military bases – including Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Bahrain and Qatar – show the range of sites struck by Iran, from a US Navy facility to Dubai’s luxurious Palm Jumeirah district.

Following initial reports of strikes across Iran’s capital, footage surfacing from inside Tehran showed extensive damage to several key political and military buildings.

The US and Israeli joint attacks appear to show the targeting of senior political figures at the compound of Iran’s supreme leader. There was no immediate word which country – or whether both – targeted the compound.
