The US and Israel have attacked Iran, hitting targets across the country.
The office of Iran's supreme leader in the capital Tehran is among the targets, as well as military sites across the country.
Iran has launched retaliatory strikes at Israel and US bases across the region.


Several verified videos from Tehran show large plumes of smoke rising above the capital.
BBC Verify has obtained satellite imagery taken over the city this morning, which shows significant damage to part of the compound of Leadership House, the office of Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
The high resolution image, captured by Airbus, shows blackened buildings, debris and a column of smoke rising from the site.
The location matches with verified footage filmed in Tehran this morning, showing the aftermath of explosions in the area.
There are also images showing that the Narmak neighbourhood, where former president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad lives, has been hit.
Another strike hit the area around the Ministry of Intelligence.
The IDF said its strikes in Tehran targeted locations where senior political and security figures were gathered.


There are also reports of strikes elsewhere in the country.
Military sites have been targeted in Kermanshah, Qom, Isfahan, Tabriz and Karaj, as well as at Iranian naval facilities in Kenarak in the south of the country.
A video sent to the BBC from the small city of Kamyaran shows that an IRGC base was bombed.
The IDF has warned Iranian civilians to evacuate areas near military sites and installations ahead of the strikes.


Iran has launched retaliatory strikes on Israel and US bases in the region. Explosions have been heard in Qatar, United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and Kuwait.
The UAE's state news agency said one person had been killed after Iranian missiles were intercepted.
Bahrain's National Communication Centre said the service centre of the US Navy's Fifth Fleet has been "subjected to a missile attack". It is responsible for operations across the Gulf, Red Sea, Arabian Sea, and parts of the Indian Ocean.
Also in Bahrain, one verified clip, filmed from a moving vehicle, shows the moment a missile strikes. An explosion follows, sending fragments and debris into the air.
Other verified footage from Bahrain shows dark plumes of smoke rising as sirens sound across the city.
The spokesperson for Kuwait's Ministry of Defence posted on X that the Ali Al-Salem airbase had been targeted by a number of ballistic missiles, but that Kuwaiti air defence forces had successfully intercepted them.
Jordan, which borders Israel, said its armed forces shot down two ballistic missiles targeting its territory. An official told the AFP news agency there was no casualties but only material damage.
