It&#8217;s now a regional war and, as such, pressure [is] being put on the United States and Israelis to bring this to a halt.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Saturday morning strikes, described as a coordinated operation between the Israel Defense Forces and U.S. Central Command, targeted senior Iranian leaders and Iran\u2019s ballistic missile and drone infrastructure, according to military officials.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/world\/key-military-sites-targeted-inside-iran-part-coordinated-us-israeli-strikes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>KEY MILITARY SITES TARGETED INSIDE IRAN AS PART OF COORDINATED US-ISRAELI STRIKES<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The rare daytime assault eliminated a swath of the Islamic regime&#8217;s leaders, including Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.<\/p>\n<p>Keane said some <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/world\/gulf-states-condemn-iranian-retaliatory-strikes-territories-following-us-israeli-operation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Gulf nations that once<\/a> publicly criticized the strikes are now shifting posture.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/politics\/foreign-policy\/middle-east\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Gulf states<\/a> are responding.

Cooper and Central Command. These will be coordinated, selected targets, and they will contribute to the offensive nature of what&#8217;s taking place \u2013 the IDF, Central Command and the Gulf states.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Keane said the next 48 hours will focus on neutralizing Iran\u2019s remaining retaliatory capabilities \u2014 including ballistic missiles and drone stockpiles \u2014 to prevent further attacks on U.S. troops, Israeli civilians and American allies in the Gulf.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If you decapitate leadership, if you destroy command and control, if you conduct significant cyberattacks on the command and control capability, that is a major disruption in terms of its effects,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>He added that air superiority has already been achieved, allowing U.S. and allied forces to &#8220;go where we want to go&#8221; inside Iranian territory.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/keane-warns-iran-strike-becoming-regional-war-says-three-gulf-states-preparing-combat\">Source &#8211; https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/keane-warns-iran-strike-becoming-regional-war-says-three-gulf-states-preparing-combat <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After U.S.-led airstrikes rocked Iran and toppled senior regime figures, retired Gen.
