Morning coverage began with reports of explosions in Tehran and Israel's announcement of a preemptive strike against Iran, with U.S. participation confirmed by multiple sources. By mid-morning, President Trump declared the start of 'major combat operations' and called for regime change, urging Iranians to 'take over your government' as the operation was named 'Operation Epic Fury.' Throughout the afternoon, coverage focused on strikes targeting Iranian leadership and military sites, with reports of casualties including at a girls' school.
