West Asia War LIVE Updates: Operation Epic Fury a laser-focused mission, says US Defense Secretary
Hegseth, while talking about Operation Epic Fury, called it a laser-focused one. He said, "The mission is laser-focused: obliterate Iran`s missiles and drones and facilities that produce them, annihilate its navy and critical security infrastructure, and sever their pathway to nuclear weapons. Iran will never possess a nuclear bomb." Meanwhile, Tehran has been hit very hard by the bombardment. Karaj, to the west of Tehran, and the city of Isfahan have also been hit over the past few hours. There is talk of casualties across the board in many of those areas, including civilians. Twenty schools so far have been hit, as per Al Jazeera.

West Asia War LIVE Updates: `Iran had intentions on trying to kill President Trump`
"Iran cannot outlast us. We`re going to ensure that we set the tone and tempo of this fight. That`s why stories that try to make it look like we`re limited; the only limits we have in this is US President Donald Trump`s desire to achieve specific effects on behalf of American people. We`ve known for a long time that Iran had intentions on trying to kill President Trump...while that was not the focus of the effort by any stretch of the imagination. In fact, never raised by the President...I ensured that those who were responsible for that were eventually part of the target list," he added.
