• Trump warns Iran: President Donald Trump told CNN that the USA "obviously" supports Israel in its actions. Trump warned Iran earlier today to agree to the nuclear deal "before it’s too late," suggesting that further Israeli attacks on the country could be "even more brutal."
• Killing of military leaders: Gen. Hossein Salami, commander of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard and one of the most powerful figures in the country, was killed in the attack.
