TL;DR
Israel says it killed Ali Larijani, Iran’s secretary of the Supreme National Security Council, and Basij commander Gholamreza Soleimani in strikes, though Tehran has not confirmed the deaths. If verified, the killings would be the war’s highest-level leadership strikes to date and signal a major escalation, though analysts caution the moves could be symbolic and not necessarily indicate regime collapse.
