Israeli rescuers report that nine people were killed in the Iran strike, while three US service men were killed in the operation.

According to the Pentagon, three US service personnel were killed in action during Saturday's joint Israeli-led operation against Iran.

Medical services in Israel claim that a missile strike in the city of Beit Shemesh has killed nine people. Our correspondent is on the scene.

Iranian sources claim that at least 153 people, including children, were killed after a purported strike struck a school, while the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) claim that it has conducted another round of strikes against Tehran.

The Iranian foreign minister claims that a new leader might be selected in "a day or two" following the assassination of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who is represented by the country's interim leadership council.

An Iranian woman tells BBC Persian that "people feel anxious and elated all at once," and another man says he is prepared to "go to the streets and demonstrate" if necessary.

Three individuals have apparently been murdered by Iranian assaults since yesterday, according to the UAE, while one person has reportedly died in Kuwait.

What will happen to Iran next? After thousands of demonstrators were slain earlier this year, it is still too early to predict whether the attack will spark a revival of the anti-government movement, according to our Middle East correspondent.
