40 Iranian Officials Reported Dead in U.S.-Israeli Strike
(MENAFN) More than 40 high-ranking Iranian officials perished in a joint U.S.-Israeli military strike carried out Saturday, according to reports from multiple major outlets citing anonymous and official sources.
CBS News, drawing on anonymous insider accounts, confirmed the death toll had reached approximately 40 Iranian figures. Fox News corroborated the figures, citing Israeli officials who indicated that between five and ten of Iran's most powerful leaders were among those killed — including Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei — during a gathering at a compound located in Tehran.
The Israeli-cited sources told Fox News that the broader toll surpassed 40 senior figures spanning both security and government ranks.
U.S. President Donald Trump confirmed Khamenei's death earlier Saturday, using the announcement to signal that Washington has no intention of standing down militarily.
"The heavy and pinpoint bombing, however, will continue, uninterrupted throughout the week or, as long as necessary," Trump said in a post on social media.
The remarks make clear that the operation — already one of the most consequential military actions against Iran in modern history — is far from over, with Trump framing continued strikes as both deliberate and open-ended.
