SHOTLIST: WEST BANK, PALESTINE (APRIL 2, 2026) 1. VARIOUS AERIAL SHOTS OF RESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS ( AUDIO OF SIRENS )WEST BANK, PALESTINE - APRIL 2, 2026: Sirens sounded in the southern West Bank city of Bethlehem on Wednesday, Apr. 2, following missiles launched by Iran in retaliation for U.S. and Israeli attacks. On Thursday, Israel’s defense minister said that Tangsiri had been killed in an airstrike along with all senior Navy command officials in the southern city of Bandar Abbas, according to local media, saying the Iranian commander was responsible for closing the strategic Strait of Hormuz. The US and Israel have maintained an air offensive on Iran since Feb. 28, killing so far over 1,340 people, including then-Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. Iran has retaliated with drone and missile strikes targeting Israel, along with Jordan, Iraq, and Gulf countries hosting US military assets, causing casualties and damage to infrastructure while disrupting global markets and aviation.
