Israel Bombs Iran’s Top Mullah Council While Voting Next Supreme Leader

Day 4 of Operation Roar of the Lion – Israel strikes deep inside Iran, reportedly targeting a sensitive leadership gathering tied to succession planning for Khamenei, while expanding attacks on regime security and propaganda infrastructure in Tehran. The U.S. escalates alongside Israel, hitting IRGC command centers, air defenses, launch sites, and naval assets. Iran responded with massive missile and drone fire toward Gulf states and threatened to close the Strait of Hormuz, sending oil prices surging. Qatar hardens its tone, Russia signals concern over energy strikes, and Europe begins shifting its stance as the conflict spreads. Inside Tehran, the regime tightens control amid fears of unrest. Hezbollah joins from the north, and Israel answers by striking its financial networks and reinforcing the Lebanese border. The region is entering a decisive phase — one that could redefine the balance of power in the Middle East.
