Trump says Ayatollah Ali Khamenei killed in US-Israel strikes on Iran

US President Donald Trump says Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has been killed after the US and Israel launched strikes on the region as part of a ‘major combat’ operation

Iran launched retaliatory strikes that targeted Israel and US military bases in the region after its capital, Tehran and other major cities were attacked on Saturday morning.

Tensions have mounted between the three nations after weeks of nuclear talks without a deal, and condemnation of Iran’s response to protesters.
