US and Israel Hit Iran Medical Center, Bridge on Day 35 of War

US and Israeli forces struck a century-old medical research center and a bridge near Tehran on Thursday, marking day 35 of their military campaign against Iran.

The war began when Israel launched strikes against Iran's nuclear facilities, missile factories, and senior military officials. Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who had ruled the country since 1989, was killed during the first wave of attacks.

Israel's military says it also killed dozens of senior figures in Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), the country's elite military force. Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has called Israel's initial attack "an act" of war.

The conflict has now entered its second month, with strikes expanding beyond military targets to include civilian infrastructure like the medical research facility and transportation networks.

Why this matters

This war involves major world powers and could affect global oil prices and security. The targeting of medical facilities raises concerns about civilian impacts as the conflict enters its second month.

What to watch

Watch for Iran's response to the latest strikes and potential escalation as the war enters week six.
