Understanding the 2026 War on Iran
After years of oppression and months of negotiations, Israel and the US struck Iran, killing Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, attacking nuclear sites and opening up the possibility of regime change.

This section is regularly updated with analysis and features on the war between Iran, Israel and the US.
