              Dahan, highlighting the timeless message that good ultimately triumphs over evil
              and spreading a note of optimism during challenging times.

              on February 28, targeting military command centres, air-defence systems, missile sites, and key regime infrastructure.
                  These strikes resulted in the death of Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei and four senior military and security offi-
              cials, with large explosions reported in Tehran and other major cities.
