The US strikes Iran’s Kharg Island – hitting 90 military targets on the critical oil processing outpost.
Iran has struck back, with strikes on the US Embᴀssy in Baghdad and debris from an intercepted Iranian missile causing a huge fire at one of the UAE’s largest oil storage facilities.
Meanwhile US and Israeli attacks have continued in Iran. BBC Persian has heard from Iranians, who’ve told of a fierce wave of overnight strikes. But Iran’s foreign minister has remained defiant and telling US media there is ‘no problem’ with the country’s new Supreme Leader amid claims he is incapacitated.
