Sydney story is making news on March 9th. The war between the United States, Israel and Iran has hit its ninth day with Tehran skies filled with thick toxic smoke and ash from American, strikes on major oil sites. These attacks have sparked massive fires and even black acid rain over the capital, shaking global energy markets. Nine days ago, Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Kaminay was assassinated and state media just named his successor as Mustafa Kaminay, his 56-year-old son. Though he's never held public office or spoken out, he has deep connections to the revolutionary guards and is set to keep the hard-line policies going. Experts like former CIA director David Petraeus say this pick dashes hopes for a more flexible leader who might ease up on the nuclear program. President Donald Trump has already labeled him unacceptable while Israel vows to take him out. Iran hit back by striking a government building in Kuwait and launching drones, many of which
got shot down over places like the UAE. Until Aviv, one Iranian missile scattered 16 cluster bomblets across the city, injuring people but causing no deaths so far, one warhead exploded, near a pregnant woman just in time for her to be safe. Meanwhile, the fighting in Lebanon has killed more than 400 people, including 41 in a recent Israeli commando raid to recover a soldier's body from decades ago. Trump told Israeli media the war's end will be a joint call with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, but he now expects it to take longer than the original four to five weeks.
