"Footage filmed from Iraq's Abu Al-Khaseeb captures plumes of smoke rising across the border amid reported strikes on the Iranian port city of Khorramshahr on Friday evening. Tensions escalated in the Middle East following joint US–Israeli military operations against Iran launched on February 28, during diplomatic efforts aimed at "limiting Iran's nuclear and missile programs." Tehran responded with retaliatory strikes targeting Israel and US military sites across the region, with explosions reported in several Gulf countries. Iran later confirmed the death of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, with his son Mojtaba Khamenei named as his successor. The conflict has since expanded to include Hezbollah in Lebanon, which intervened in response to the killing of the Iranian leader, while key shipping routes, including the Strait of Hormuz, have been disrupted. The escalation has pushed oil prices above $100 per barrel, adding pressure on global markets and triggering protests in multiple countries."
