The US and Israel have killed at least 39 senior Iranian officials and military commanders in a series of coordinated strikes since they launched their war on Tehran on February 28.
Among those killed are key members of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), intelligence agencies, and high-level decision-making bodies.
Key figures include Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, top security official Ali Larijani, Intelligence Minister Esmail Khatib, and security advisor Ali Shamkhani—all assassinated in the last 45 days.
