Live Updates: Iran Retaliates Against Israel and U.S. Allies
Three American service members were killed in action, the Pentagon said. At least nine people were killed in a small Israeli city near Jerusalem, as the United States and Israel renewed attacks on Iran. The killing of Iran’s supreme leader and other top officials on Saturday came after U.S.-Israeli intelligence sharing.  Aaron Boxerman Farnaz Fassihi Zolan Kanno-Youngs and Ronen Bergman Iran targeted Israel and American allies in the Gulf on Sunday in retaliatory strikes over the killing of the supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, as the United States and Israel pressed on with a high-risk military campaign that analysts say could lead to a lengthy war with no clear off-ramp. Iran’s leaders vowed that Ayatollah Khamenei’s assassination would not deter them. The country’s top national security official, Ali Larijani, said an interim committee would run the country until a new leader was chosen. And he said Iran would hit Israeli and American targets “with a force they have never experienced before.” Three U.S. service members have been killed in action and five have been seriously wounded in the conflict, the Pentagon said on Sunday. United States Central Command did not say where the troops were killed, but said that several other troops “sustained minor shrapnel injuries and concussions and are in the process of being returned to duty.” Iranian missile barrages repeatedly targeted Israel on Sunday, forcing much of the country into fortified shelters. The Israeli ambulance service said nine people were killed and nearly 30 others wounded in Beit Shemesh, a city about 18 miles west of Jerusalem, making it the worst casualty event in Israel since the conflict started. Explosions again resounded in Qatar, Bahrain, and the United Arab Emirates as local air defenses sought to repel Iranian drones. One person was killed and more than 30 were injured in the Iranian attacks in Kuwait, the country’s health ministry said on Sunday.
