E3 say they may back defensive steps to destroy Iran’s launch capability

A senior White House official said on Sunday Iran's potential new leadership has indicated readiness to negotiate with the United States after US-Israeli strikes killed Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and other top officials.

The unnamed official told the Associated Press that President Donald Trump is willing to negotiate “eventually” but military operations will continue without pause for now.

The official did not identify the potential new leaders.

Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said on Sunday that the bombings in Tehran have no impact on the country's ability to conduct war.

“We've had two decades to study defeats of the US military to our immediate east and west. We've incorporated lessons accordingly,” he posted on X. “Bombings in our capital have no impact on our ability to conduct war. Decentralized Mosaic Defense enables us to decide when - and how - the war will end.”

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen on Sunday urged a credible transition in Iran to halt its nuclear and ballistic missile programs, end regional destabilization, restore stability and support the democratic aspirations of Iranians, following Iran's missile strikes on Qatar.

"I called for a credible transition in Iran that stops its nuclear and ballistic missile programs, ends its destabilizing actions in the region, restores stability and supports the democratic aspirations of the Iranian people," Von Der Leyen posted on X after a phone call with Qatar's Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani.

US Central Command on Sunday rejected as false Iran's claim at the UN that its responses targeted only US military bases and assets.

CENTCOM said Iran struck 14 civilian locations, including airports in Dubai and Kuwait, hotels in Dubai and Bahrain, the Port of Dubai, the Haifa oil refinery, and residential areas in Israel, Bahrain and Qatar and provided a list.

The list of given locations including: ·

· Dubai International Airport

· Kuwait International Airport

· Zayed International Airport, Dubai

· Erbil International Airport, Iraq

· Fairmont Palm Hotel, Dubai

· Burj Al Arab Hotel, Dubai

· Crowne Plaza Hotel, Bahrain

· Port of Dubai

· Haifa Oil Refinery

· Residential areas in Beit Shemesh, Israel

· Residential areas in Tel Aviv, Israel

· Residential area of Era Views Towers, Bahrain

· Residential areas in Qatar

US Central Command on Sunday confirmed that B-2 stealth bombers, armed with 2,000 lb. bombs, struck Iran's hardened ballistic missile facilities Saturday night.

"No nation should ever doubt America's resolve," CENTCOM posted on X with a video shows B-2 in hangar and ready to fly.
