The attacks killed Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei along with several senior officials. The strikes were followed by retaliatory attacks on US assets in the Middle East and on residential areas in countries including the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Bahrain. After Khamenei’s death, his son Mojtaba Khamenei was chosen as his successor.US President Donald Trump said on Monday that the war against Iran could be short-lived, but he did not rule out the possibility that it could escalate further. “I think the war is very complete, pretty much,” the president said, speaking from his golf club in Doral, Florida, according to CBS News. “(Iran has) no navy, no communications, they’ve got no air force. Their missiles are down to a scatter. Their drones are being blown up all over the place, including their manufacturing of drones.”In response to Trump’s remarks, a spokesperson for Iran’s paramilitary Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said Iran, not Trump, would decide when the conflict ends. “Iran will determine when the war ends,” he said, according to Iranian state media.The war has also disrupted global energy supplies, reducing major oil and gas shipments to world markets and pushing fuel prices higher world over.
