The attack by Israel and the USA on Iran began on February 28 with extensive air and missile strikes on cities and military facilities. In response, Tehran attacked Israel and American bases in neighboring countries. After the first strikes, US President Donald Trump announced the start of a military operation called "Epic Fury."
As a result of the attacks, the Supreme Leader of Iran, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, as well as several high-ranking officials in Tehran, were killed.
Violence in the Middle East continues, as do missile strikes from both sides. Thousands of people have been trapped due to the closed airspace in the conflict zone.
