| Description: | Iran fired missiles and drones across the Middle East in retaliation for a joint US and Israeli strike that killed the Islamic republic’s supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. But a video circulating online purportedly showing strikes on an Israeli nuclear facility is unrelated; it shows an explosion at a Ukrainian ammunition depot in 2017. |
