AFP: Seven missiles fell near the Iranian presidential palace and the residence of Supreme Leader Khamenei, and Khamenei, who was not in Tehran, has been "transferred to a safe location."

This afternoon, after Israel announced a "preemptive strike," U.S. President Trump said, "A major military operation against Iran has begun." The U.S. War Department named this operation "Epic Fury."

According to reports, seven missiles fell near the presidential palace and the residence of Iran's Supreme Leader Khamenei. An Iranian official told Reuters that Khamenei was not in Tehran at the time and had been transferred to a safe location.

Commentary: The U.S. and Israel directly launched missiles targeting the Iranian presidential palace and the residence of the supreme leader, which is an explicit assassination attempt at the head of state, completely crossing the bottom line of international law and war ethics. Trump openly announced a "major military operation" and gave it the name "Epic Fury," publicly declaring the intention to overthrow a sovereign country's government. Although the Iranian senior officials are temporarily safe, the attack on the core area of the capital is a great humiliation, and the situation is very severe.
