The moment many predicted has arrived. In this special edition of The Erin Molan Show, Erin reacts to breaking news that Israel has launched strikes inside Iran — and the United States is now confirmed to be involved. What do we know so far? • Targets struck in Tehran • U.S. involvement confirmed • Israel preparing for retaliation • “Operation Shield of Judah” message issued to the Iranian people Erin makes it clear: being hopeful that a terrorist regime faces consequences is not war-mongering — it’s standing with the Iranian people who have suffered under a brutal dictatorship for decades.

But this is just the beginning. With misinformation already spreading, Erin breaks down what’s verified, what’s not, and what could come next. Pray for the IDF. Pray for American forces. And pray for the innocent people of Iran who have risked everything for freedom. Stay with us for verified updates as this develops.

Multiple Reports Say Iran Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei Killed in US-Israel attack on Iran.

BREAKING UPDATE: Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei Confirmed Dead After U.S.-ISREALI Strike

Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was killed in a major attack on Iran launched by Israel and the United States. There was no immediate comment from the U.S. or Iran on his status. The assassination of the second leader of the Islamic Republic, who had no designated successor, would throw its future into doubt and raise the prospect of a protracted conflict given Iranian threats of retaliation. In a nationally televised address, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said there were “growing signs” that Khamenei had been killed when Israel struck his compound early Saturday. Shortly after the address, two Israeli officials said Israel had confirmed his death. The officials both spoke on condition of anonymity pending a formal announcement and gave no further details. Khamenei succeeded Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, the leader of the 1979 Islamic Revolution. He had the final say on all major policies, leading Iran’s clerical establishment and its paramilitary Revolutionary Guard – the two main centers of power in the country’s theocracy. As the attack on Iran unfolded, President Donald Trump urged the Iranian public to “seize control of your destiny” by rising up against the Islamic leadership. In a video announcing the “major combat operations,” Trump told Iranians that “when we are finished, take over your government. It will be yours to take. This will be probably your only chance for generations.” Iranian state media, citing the Red Crescent, on Saturday evening said at least 201 people had been killed and more than 700 injured. Iran retaliated by firing missiles and drones toward Israel and U.S. military bases in the region, and exchanges of fire continued into the night. Some of the first strikes on Iran appeared to hit near the offices of the 86-year-old Khamenei. Before Israeli officials confirmed the death, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi told NBC News that Khamenei and President Masoud Pezeshkian were alive “as far as I know." He called the attack “unprovoked, illegal and absolutely illegitimate.” The strikes during the holy fasting month of Ramadan opened a stunning new chapter in U.S. intervention in Iran, marking the second time in eight months that the Trump administration has attacked the Islamic Republic during talks over its nuclear program. About 12 hours after the attacks began, the U.S. military reported no U.S. casualties and minimal damage at U.S. bases despite “hundreds of Iranian missile and drone attacks.” It said targets in Iran included Revolutionary Guard command facilities, air defense capabilities, missile and drone launch sites, and military airfields. Various members of Iran’s leadership were targeted in the attack. Israel said it killed the commander of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps and the country’s defense minister. The Israeli military also said its strikes killed the secretary of the Iranian Security Council, a close adviser to Khamenei. Israel said the strikes had targeted three locations in Tehran where intelligence had indicated that top Iranian officials were gathered. Neither Iran nor the U.S. commented on or confirmed Israel's claims about the Iranian leadership. Even if Iran’s top leaders are killed, regime change is not guaranteed. Democrats decried that Trump had taken action without congressional authorization. White House spokesperson Karoline Leavitt said the administration had briefed several Republican and Democratic leaders in Congress in advance. The U.N. Security Council said it would meet Saturday afternoon. The U.N.’s nuclear watchdog said on X it was closely monitoring developments and had seen “no evidence of radiological impact.” Iran was in a “near-total internet blackout,” advocacy group NetBlocks said.

Iran launches missiles, drones at Israel, US bases

The United States and Israel have launched a major military attack on Iran, targeting sites across the country, including areas near Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s offices in Tehran. Smoke was seen rising from the capital, and Iranian media reported strikes nationwide. President Donald Trump announced “major combat operations” are underway. In a video, he said the operations aim to defend Americans and prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon, while calling on the Iranian people to “seize control of your destiny.” U.S. officials say the strikes are intended to curb Iran’s nuclear program, counter its missile capabilities, and weaken support for regional proxy groups, including Hezbollah and Hamas. The action follows failed diplomatic talks and years of escalating tensions. Iran responded with missiles and drones targeting Israel and U.S. bases in Bahrain, Kuwait, and Qatar. The UAE and Iraq shut down airspace, and commercial flights were disrupted. State media reported at least 57 killed in a strike on a girls’ school, though U.S. and Israeli officials have not confirmed that report. U.S. embassies in the region have advised staff to shelter in place. The situation remains highly fluid.

US and Israel launch 'major combat operations' in Iran

The U.S. and Israel launched an attack Saturday on Iran’s capital, as witnesses reported smoke rising near the offices of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, 86, who hasn’t been seen publicly in days. President Donald Trump said in a video posted on social media that the U.S. had begun “major combat operations in Iran,” claiming that Iran has continued to develop its nuclear program. The U.S. has assembled a vast fleet of fighter jets and warships in the region. President Donald Trump had wanted a deal on Iran's nuclear program. and saw an opportunity while Tehran is struggling with growing dissent following nationwide protests. Iran had hoped to avert a war, but maintains it has the right to enrich uranium and does not want to discuss other issues, like its long-range missile program or support for armed groups like Hamas and Hezbollah. Trump acknowledged that the operations against Iran may lead to U.S. casualties. “The lives of courageous American heroes may be lost, and we may have casualties,” he said in a video posted to social media early Saturday morning. “That often happens in war." In the video, Trump wore a white baseball cap with the letters USA, a navy suit and white shirt with no necktie. There appeared to be a dark blue curtain behind him as the president announced the war in a video from Mar-a-Lago, his home and club in Palm Beach, Florida. After the June attacks on Iran’s nuclear sites, Trump said, “We warned them never to resume their malicious pursuit of nuclear weapons. And we sought repeatedly to make a deal. We tried.” He added that Iran “rejected every opportunity to renounce their nuclear ambitions, and we can’t take it anymore.” Iran has said it hasn’t enriched uranium since June, but it has blocked international inspectors from visiting the sites the United States bombed during the 12-day war then. Satellite photos analyzed by The Associated Press have shown new activity at two of those sites, suggesting Iran is trying to assess and potentially recover material there. Despite claims that last year’s strike against Iran’s nuclear facilities destroyed the country’s nuclear program, Trump said that Iran “attempted to rebuild their nuclear program and to continue developing the long-range missiles that can now threaten our very good friends and allies in Europe, our troops stationed overseas, and could soon reach the American homeland.” Trump said that Saturday’s strikes would be part of “a massive and ongoing operation” that will aim to “destroy their missiles and raze their missile industry to the ground” as well as “annihilate their navy,” and “ensure that the region’s terrorist proxies can no longer destabilize the region or the world and attack our forces.” Trump called the attacks on Iran “a noble mission,” saying they were necessary because of Iran’s pursuit of nuclear weapons and missile systems that could reach the U.S. He called on Iranian officials to “lay down your arms” or “you will face certain death,” and encouraged the Iranian people to “take over your government — it will be yours to take.” Iraq closes its airspace Iraq’s Ministry of Transport said Saturday the country’s airspace has been closed following airstrikes on neighboring Iran. The ministry’s spokesman, Mitham al-Safi, told state-run Iraqi News Agency that “the closure was preceded by the evacuation of all air traffic from Iraqi airspace.” The U.S. began “major combat operations in Iran,” President Donald Trump said in a video on Truth Social. He said the objective is to defend the U.S. by “eliminating imminent threats from the Iranian regime.” Two residents reported hearing the sounds of strikes echoing across the Iranian capital. A resident in the area of Mehrabad airport reported the sounds of “two heavy explosions” shaking windows just over half an hour ago. In central Tehran near Vanak, another resident reported the sounds of “blasts and war” coming at almost the same moment. Israel Airports Authority says Israel’s airspace is completely closed Planes that were en route to land in Israel are now being sent to area airports. Passengers who were at the airport awaiting flights are being shuttled back to various locations within Israel.

The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly of Trump, Feat. Ann Coulter

On today’s show, Josh opens by discussing what he views as a strong week for President Trump following the State of the Union address, highlighting the contrast inside the chamber as many Democrats declined to stand for proposals that are widely supported, common-sense ideas. Josh is then joined by conservative commentator Ann Coulter to evaluate what the Trump administration has accomplished so far on immigration. While praising progress, Coulter explains why she believes more can still be done. She also shares what she hopes to see from the president moving forward, including a more restrained approach to foreign conflicts and a renewed focus on an America First agenda — particularly efforts to confront drug cartels operating in and affecting the United States. To close the show, Josh discusses rising tensions with Iran and reports of a potential strike in the coming days. He breaks down the red line President Trump has drawn and explains what he believes must happen for the administration to project strength moving forward.
