US President Donald Trump says Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has been killed by US-Israeli strikes on Tehran.

The US president wrote on social media that the death of the supreme leader was "justice" for "the people of Iran", Americans, and "people from many countries throughout the world"

He says bombing will continue, "this is the single greatest chance for the Iranian people to take back their country", and that many Iranian forces "no longer want to fight".

The US and Israel launched attacks across the country, and Israel earlier identified seven officials it said it had killed, not including the supreme leader.

In response, Iran launched attacks throughout the Middle East. Apparent Iranian strikes have been reported in Dubai, Doha, Bahrain, and Kuwait - places with US military bases, or that are allied to the US.

More than 200 people have been killed across Iran, the Red Crescent says.
