Iran has revealed the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps intelligence chief has been killed in a strike. Israel’s defence forces have confirmed they eliminated Majid Khademi and vowed to “hunt down” other IRGC members. This comes as a wave of joint US and Israel airstrikes was carried out in Iran overnight, leaving at least 25 people dead and multiple buildings damaged.

Iran’s top university, where some of the biggest anti-regime protests were carried out earlier this year, was also struck. Iran’s Vice President is accusing US President Donald Trump of “madness” over the attack.
