"Rescue teams continued their efforts in Beit Shemesh on Sunday following a deadly strike earlier in the day. Footage shows rescuers on the ground moving through debris. Residents are later seen inspecting damaged vehicles. It comes after an Iranian strike hit Beit Shemesh, killing at least nine people and injuring more than 57, with eleven still missing. On Saturday, the United States and Israel launched a joint military operation against Iran, with US President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowing to 'destroy Iran’s missiles'. In response, Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced 'large-scale missile and drone attacks' targeting Israel. Reports indicated that US military bases across the region, including in the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Qatar, Iraq, and Kuwait, were struck amid the escalation. Trump later confirmed Khamenei's death, describing it as "the greatest opportunity for the Iranian people to reclaim their homeland." Ali Khamenei served as Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran, the country's highest political and religious authority, since June 4, 1989. He succeeded Ruhollah Khomeini, the founder of the Islamic Republic. Khamenei remained in power for more than three decades, making him one of the longest-serving leaders in modern Middle Eastern history."
