Relevance Score
Over the weekend through March 2, the United States and Israel launched a military assault on Iran that killed Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and much of his senior command; the Iranian Red Crescent reports more than 550 dead and at least six American service members killed. Coming eight weeks after U.S. forces captured Venezuela’s Nicolás Maduro, the strikes risk regional escalation, civilian casualties, and complex post-conflict governance challenges.
