And can you tell us, Mark, what do we know about what exactly was hit?
We're recording late afternoon on Saturday, and we want to be careful about what we can confirm and what we can't.
We certainly know there has been damage to government facilities and various other military facilities in Iran.
There is satellite footage of the supreme leader's compound, which appears to be flattened.
And there's no question from the targets that the goal was to change the leadership in Iran.
There are also reports of a school being hit in Iran with dozens of civilian casualties.
We will know more, much more in the coming days about this first wave of strikes and the damage that was done.
And we are certainly also anticipating further waves of strikes in the coming days.
David, talk about the response from Iran so far.
So basically, all of this is happening overnight, at least East Coast time, where we are.
And Trump releases a video that a lot of folks in the U.S.
wake up to on Saturday morning that explains that this is the U.S.
military action that we have all been waiting for.
Right.
He's basically saying in this video, we are going to take out the heads of the regime and now the people of Iran should rise up and basically finish the job of ousting their government.
And then later in the day, we start hearing reports that Supreme Leader Khamenei is dead.
The reports first come out of Israel, and then late afternoon, President Trump puts out a post on social media announcing that he has been killed.
It's enormous.
The Supreme Leader of Iran is the identity of a theocratic government that has existed for 47 years.
He is not only the spiritual head, but he provides all direction for the lower levels of Iran's government.
