Sources missing
I cannot create the requested comprehensive 4–6 paragraph summary because you did not provide the source articles or their texts/URLs.
“Why did US and Israel attack Iran and how long could the war last”
Your instruction asked for a summary “based strictly on the provided articles,” but no article content or links were included in your message, so I have no primary material to cite or synthesize for a factual account of any operation described as “US and Israel Assassinate Iran's Supreme Leader.”

Without those source documents I cannot meet your requirement to base every claim on the provided articles.
Cannot invent sources
Because your rules require every paragraph to include at least three citations from different sources and to quote those sources verbatim, I cannot invent or rely on my training data to fill gaps.
I must base the summary only on the documents you supply; inventing source material or attributing facts to outlets not present in the prompt would violate your explicit constraints and the critical factual-accuracy rules you set.

How I will proceed
If you provide the articles (full text, excerpts, or links to news pieces) I will produce a 4–6 paragraph summary that draws on multiple perspectives—West Asian, Western mainstream, and Western alternative—while following your NewsCord editorial framework.
“Why did US and Israel attack Iran and how long could the war last”
I will use direct language (for example, “Gaza genocide” where the sources substantiate that term) and avoid passive constructions that hide perpetrators, and I will label contradictions or uncertainties across sources explicitly.
Next steps
Please paste or upload the articles now (or give direct URLs and specify which passages you want emphasised).
Specify whether you want 4, 5, or 6 paragraphs and whether to prioritise particular outlet-types.

Once you provide source material I will produce the requested summary with the required per-paragraph citations and verbatim quotes tied to each claim.
