About this listen

Listen to our correspondents discuss the latest developments in Iran, including the death of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. With Khamenei gone, Iran faces a major power vacuum, leaving the country at a crossroads not seen since the 1979 revolution. The ambitious strikes by the US and Israel against their arch enemy are President Donald Trump's riskiest move yet. Our Pentagon reporter discusses how the president was briefed on a high-risk, high-reward scenario. Yes, Iran could strike back with mass casualties. But Trump also saw a chance to reshape Middle East geopolitics and secure his legacy. Then there's the big question - how capable is Iran of fighting back?
