Past 5 days of War: Part 1 Round Up

Day 6 of the U.S. and Israel war on Iran: In just five days, Operation Epic Fury launched massive U.S. strikes across Iran, Iran’s Supreme Leader was assassinated, hundreds of targets were hit in more than 130 cities, casualties have surpassed 1,000 with thousands wounded, Iran retaliated with ballistic missiles across the region, oil facilities were struck, and the Strait of Hormuz was declared closed, sending global energy markets into panic. As the conflict rapidly expands across West Asia (Middle East), analysts warn this could become a brutal war of attrition, one that may drain U.S. weapons, money, and military assets so quickly that Washington could struggle to sustain a long war with Iran.
