The Israeli Prime Minister says bombing in Iran could continue for days. 

Coordinated strikes with the US have killed Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and multiple senior officials - resulting in Iran launching counter strikes across the Middle East. 

Three US service members have been killed in the military operations while nine people in Israel have been killed in Iran's retaliatory attacks. 

Iranian officials have formed a transitional council to lead the country. 

The Guardian Washington Bureau Chief David Smith told Ryan Bridge Benjamin Netanyahu wants the offensive to continue - but US Congress likely won't. 

He says they will want US President Donald Trump to leave Iran as soon as possible.
