On March 1st, 2026, the Middle East faces an unprecedented escalation as the United States and Israel carry out Operation Epic Fury, a massive joint air campaign targeting Iran. The operation has resulted in the confirmed death of Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, after strikes hit his secure compound in Tehran. President Donald Trump has called for the Iranian people to rise up against the clerical establishment, while Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu cites an existential threat as the motivation for the strikes. Iran has responded with a series of retaliatory missile barrages across the region, striking near U.S. military assets and within Israel. With hundreds of casualties reported and regional airspace largely shuttered, the global community is bracing for the economic and security consequences of a potential long-term conflict.
