In the second week of the US-Israel war on Iran, Tehran continues to experience "some of the most intense bombardments" overnight. According to Iranian authorities, the city and its military facilities have faced extensive attacks, resulting in civilian casualties and destruction, highlighting the escalating nature of the conflict initiated by the US and Israeli regimes.
US President Donald Trump stated on Monday that the war could be over "pretty quickly," while adding he was "not happy" with Iran's new Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei. These remarks have raised questions about the future trajectory of the hostilities and the US regime's purported strategy towards Iranian leadership, amid ongoing military operations.
Hundreds of thousands of Iranians rallied in Tehran to show their support for Mojtaba Khamenei, who succeeded his father, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. The demonstrators voiced allegiance to Iran's independence and its leadership, reflecting a sense of national unity and resistance against external aggression in the face of the war.
As the conflict enters its second week, combat intensity is increasing, with no official reports of peace negotiations underway. The Iranian government has announced enhanced defensive measures and called for international intervention, while the US-Israel alliance allegedly continues to pursue its objectives, despite mounting humanitarian and geopolitical costs in the region.
