From the Daily News Now Network, this is Global News Today. Israeli strikes have targeted fuel depots in Tehan, and the nearby city of Karaj, sparking massive fires and thick smoke across the area. Local reports confirm hits on key oil facilities, with videos showing streets ablaze and huge flames lighting up the night sky. These attacks are now in their second week, following the assassination of Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Kaminay. The United States and Israel say the move's counter threats from Iran's nuclear program, which Iran insists is peaceful. Iran's leadership has picked a replacement for Kaminay, but they have not named him yet. Residents shared vivid accounts with reporters, describing red flashes, shaking buildings, and skies turning bright like daytime. One person in Karaj said, a depot exploded and burned for hours, while folks in Tehan reported choking smoke that blocked out the sun. These are tracking air quality and urging people to stay indoors. The strikes have killed at least a 0.0332 civilians and wounded thousands more, according

to Iran's UN ambassador. Iran has fired back with attacks on U.S. allies in the region. Many Iranians express mixed feelings. Some welcome the chaos as a chance to end the current regime and live normally, despite the terror. Others worry the worst price could leave things even worse if leaders cling to power.
