Israel said today it killed two more top Iranian leaders in overnight strikes, including the powerful security chief Ali Larijani. This comes as Israel continues a ground invasion of southern Lebanon, targeting Iranian proxy Hezbollah. NBC News Foreign Correspondent Matt Bradley explains how this top-bottom strategy aligns with the U.S and Israel’s broader goals for the war. Plus: Cuba is still reeling from a total electrical outage that left 11 million people in the dark yesterday. NBC News Correspondent George Solis reports from Havana on the larger impacts of the country’s ongoing energy crisis – and his exclusive interview with the deputy prime minister ahead of a historic announcement opening the country further to foreign investment, including from Cuban nationals who live overseas.
