On Saturday, February 28, 2026, the United States and Israel launched an attack on Iran, targeting Tehran and multiple other cities. Explosions were reported in Tehran, with strikes hitting government ministries, military compounds, and civilian areas. An Israeli strike in Minab reportedly hit a girls' school, causing casualties. In response, Iran launched missiles and drones at Israel and US military bases in the Middle East, warning of continued attacks until the "enemy is decisively defeated" and considering all US assets in the region legitimate targets. Casualties and damage details are still being collected, and Iran's National Security Council has advised residents to leave Tehran amid escalation fears. Other locations struck include Isfahan, Kermanshah, Qom, Tabriz, and Shiraz.
