Operation Epic Fury: The Sunday Telegraph Reports Khamenei's Demise (Sunday 1 March 2026)

Escalation in the Middle East

The front page of The Sunday Telegraph on Sunday, 1 March 2026, reports the death of Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei under the headline "Khamenei dead in rubble." This follows a "massive assault" by the US and Israel aimed at regime change. The main image features a focused Donald Trump, wearing a "USA" cap, at what appears to be a military briefing, with a map displaying "OPERATION EPIC FURY," underscoring the military action. Trump declared Khamenei "one of the most evil people in history." Iran retaliated by striking five Gulf states, including a hotel in Dubai, and a secondary image shows rescue workers amidst rubble, depicting the aftermath.

UK Response and National Affairs

Inside the paper, further analysis suggests the necessity for Iranian commanders to turn against the regime. The conflict's impact on oil prices, potentially soaring and "wreaking havoc" on the British economy, is highlighted. National reports indicate that the UK did not endorse or participate in the strikes, though RAF Typhoons are patrolling the Middle East to protect British bases. In other national news, a Cabinet Office minister resigned over alleged smear campaign claims, and Olivia Dean swept four awards at the Brit Awards, becoming the new UK queen of pop.
