US Strikes Near Bushehr, Iran Retaliates Across Gulf as Khamenei Buried in Mashhad (Jul 9, 1603 UTC, 1903 Israel) (Evening Edition)
The US struck targets near Iran’s Bushehr nuclear plant, prompting Iranian ballistic missile salvos at Jordan, Kuwait, Bahrain, and Qatar. Khamenei’s funeral culminated in Mashhad with calls for revenge, while the IRGC warned foreign forces out of the Strait of Hormuz. Israel rejected Trump’s Lebanon withdrawal claim, and Palestinian elections were called for November.
