Israel Bombs Tehran and Seizes Land in Lebanon as Trump Says War to Last 4–5 Weeks
US and Israeli forces have struck over 2,000 targets inside Iran since operations began February 28, killing Supreme Leader Khamenei and achieving air superiority over Tehran. Israel launched a new ground incursion into southern Lebanon. Trump stated the campaign is expected to last "four to five weeks but could go far longer," as the UN urges an immediate ceasefire.
