Israel has begun a fresh wave of strikes on Iran, targetting the Iranian leadership, its air defences and its ballistic missile capabilities.

Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was killed in the attacks on Saturday, which US President Donald Trump said were aimed at overturning Tehran’s government.

The strikes have killed hundreds of people in Iran, according to Iranian state media.

Iran has launched retaliatory missile strikes against American military bases across the Middle East, as well as Israel.

New Zealanders in Dubai say they are trapped in the country, with the airport shut down.
