Joint U.S.-Israeli strikes against an array of targets in Iran on Saturday resulted in the death of that nation's Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. As Iran's military forces launched retaliatory strikes, President Donald Trump vowed to continue the attacks with the objective of regime change. Charlie D'Agata reports from Tel Aviv.
"There's probably a lot of jockeying inside of Iran right now, they have a very consultative, deliberative process to replace the Supreme Leader," Sen. Tom Cotton said Sunday on "Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan."
Iran's regime was hobbled by the first day of war, but as people gathered for the ayatollah's funeral, Iranian missiles killed at least 8 people near Jerusalem.
