Israel announced on March 17 that overnight airstrikes in Tehran killed Ali Larijani, secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, and Gholamreza Soleimani, commander of Iran's Basij paramilitary forces — the most significant targeted killings since Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei was assassinated on the war's first day. The strikes, which Iran has neither confirmed nor denied, come as the conflict enters its 18th day with no ceasefire in sight, oil prices surging past $100 a barrel, and a cumulative death toll exceeding 2,300 across the region.
