What to know about the Iran war:
- Iran launched more missiles at U.S. allies Thursday and said at least 14 people were killed in U.S. airstrikes over the last two days of escalating tit-for-tat strikes, sparked by Iranian attacks on commercial vessels in the Strait of Hormuz earlier this week.
- The funeral procession for Iran's former Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei took place Thursday. He was later buried in the northeast city of Mashhad. Khamenei was killed on the first day of the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran.
- President Trump said Wednesday that Iran "wants to make a deal so badly," but while he said he would let talks continue, there has been no sign of ongoing diplomacy, and he's also threatened "much worse" strikes if Iran attacks ships again.
