Escalating tensions in the Middle East, Israel and the US launched a large-scale military intervention against Iran with operations that began on February 28. During the operations, many prominent figures, including Ali Khamenei, who has been Iran's supreme leader since 1989, lost their lives.
Following these flash developments, Iran responded by targeting Israel, as well as US bases and Gulf countries, with missile and drone attacks.
While various debates continue regarding the global repercussions of the process and what might happen in the future, a statement that created an agenda in the US public also came from Senator Lindsey Graham. Graham, known for his closeness to Trump and his anti-Turkey rhetoric, made a striking claim during a live broadcast on Fox News.
Emphasizing that there was sufficient justification for the attacks on Iran, Graham said, "The next target is Cuba, they will fall too. The days of this communist dictatorship in Cuba are numbered."
