Israel intensified its offensive with coordinated airstrikes on military and security installations in Tehran and Beirut, marking a significant escalation in the regional conflict. In response, Iran launched missile and drone attacks targeting US military bases and diplomatic-linked facilities across Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and Qatar. Explosions were reported in multiple locations, raising fears of a wider Gulf confrontation. Casualty figures continue to rise, and international leaders have urged restraint as the conflict threatens oil supplies, regional stability and broader Middle East security.
