US military conflict with Iran ongoing updates

The United States and Israel launched joint military strikes against Iran beginning Saturday, killing Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and triggering an ongoing exchange of hostilities now in its fifth day. The conflict, dubbed Operation Epic Fury by the U.S. and Operation Roaring Lion by Israel, has expanded to include naval engagements, regional drone attacks, and energy infrastructure disruption. The U.S. Senate voted 53-47 to block a war powers resolution that would have curbed President Trump's unilateral military authority in Iran.
