The conflict began with a daytime attack on Iranian leadership in Tehran, resulting in the death of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Subsequent strikes targeted military bases and compounds across Iran. Satellite imagery confirms significant damage to the Konarak naval base, including burning vessels and damage to aircraft shelters. A drone base in the same area was also heavily damaged.
