Chapter 1: What is the latest update on Operation Epic Fury targeting Iran?
This is a Fox News alert. Operation Epic Fury targets Iran. I'm Angelo Bavaro, Fox News. The U.S. and Israel launching airstrikes across Iran this morning. The joint military operation is expected to carry on for days. Officials tell Fox News that Israel is targeting Iranian leadership, while the U.S. is targeting military targets and ballistic missile sites that pose an imminent threat.
When we talked to President Trump about this less than 24 hours ago, he was up front about the risks of this conflict becoming a long-term war. So he ordered these strikes overnight with this in mind. Is there a risk that strikes could turn into a long, drawn-out conflict in the Middle East? I guess you could say there's always a risk.
You know, when there's war, there's a risk in anything, both good and bad. Look, it would be wonderful if they'd negotiate... really in good conscience, good faith and conscience, but they are not getting there.
To that point, even though we don't have any reason today to think that American boots would be deployed on the ground in Iran, there are a lot of American servicemen and women in the region supporting this mission by air and by sea.
That is Fox's Peter Ducey. Democratic Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman joining Fox & Friends weekend to discuss that military operation.
Iran massacred 30,000 of their own people right now. This war is not about the Iranian people. It's about this poisonous regime. And that's why I'm proud to stand with our military. I'm proud to stand with Israel, too.
World leaders split on that action, with Canada and Australia backing the action, while France and Spain condemning it. And the NYPD putting out a statement this morning saying they are closely monitoring the events in Iran and the Middle East, and they're coordinating with federal and international partners.
They will also boost patrols out of an abundance of caution to sensitive locations across New York City. America is listening to Fox News.

A U.S. citizen is among those killed in a shootout between a private speedboat and Cuba's Coast Guard.
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio says the Cuban government very well could be lying when it claims that men aboard a U.S.-registered speedboat who got into a shootout with the Cuban Coast Guard in Cuban waters were terrorists. Rubio is demanding a full investigation. At least one person killed was a U.S. citizen. Cuba's regime has long accused U.S.
