Dubai, Other Countries Attacked By Iran

The crazies in Iran have launched missile attacks at other Arab countries in retaliation for the military action of Operation Epic Fury. This includes attacks on Dubai.

The last I heard from Asya, she was working in Dubai. I haven't heard from her in a while and I sent her a message to see if she's still there. 

According to the New Voice of Ukraine:

Images showed smoke rising over Tehran, and explosions were reported in five Iranian cities. Iran, in turn, launched ballistic missiles at Israel.

Israel dubbed its operation against Iran “Roaring Lion,” while the United States named its operation “Epic Fury.”

Explosions were also reported in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, where one person was killed. The UAE Ministry of Defensesaid the country had come under a “blatant attack” involving Iranian ballistic missiles.

Explosions were also reported in Bahrain and Qatar, where U.S. military bases are located.

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei Reportedly Killed

Iran's regime supreme leader Ayatollah has been reported killed in an Israeli air strike.

According to Reuters (via AOL):

Feb 28 (Reuters) - Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who turned the country into a powerful anti-U.S. force and extended its military influence across the Middle East while crushing repeated ‌domestic unrest, was killed in Israeli and U.S. strikes, a senior Israeli official told Reuters on ‌Saturday.

There was no immediate Iranian confirmation of his fate.

The United States and Israel carried out military strikes on Iran on Saturday, targeting ​its top leaders and plunging the Middle East into a conflict that President Donald Trump said would end a security threat to the U.S. and give Iranians a chance to topple their rulers.

"Operation Epic Fury"

 

Iran refused to dismantle its nuclear program, despite warnings from President Trump that their refusal would lead to consequences.

Well, it has started. The U.S. and Israel have launched air strikes against Iran.

From the New York Post:

The US and Israel launched airstrikes against Iran Saturday morning in response to the regime’s refusal to dismantle its nuclear program after weeks of negotiations —  targeting military infrastructure and Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s compound in Tehran.

The attacks — which the Department of War called “Operation Epic Fury” — follow a massive US military buildup in the Middle East and come after President Trump repeatedly warned Tehran that it would face consequences if it didn’t make a deal with the US. 

Iran then launched missiles towards Israel in a retaliatory attack as officials claimed the response would be “crushing.” 

“Our objective is to defend the American people by eliminating imminent threats from the Iranian regime,” Trump said in an eight-minute video address on Saturday.
