The conflict between Iran, Israel, and the United States is intensifying, with new airstrikes reported in Beirut and Tehran, while tensions are spreading across the Middle East.

Israeli aircraft reportedly struck areas in southern Lebanon, including the outskirts of Beirut, and the Israeli military confirmed additional strikes in the Iranian capital.

Meanwhile, missile and drone attacks continue in the Gulf region, where Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Kuwait report having intercepted several air attacks.

In Abu Dhabi, one person was killed by debris from an intercepted missile, while at least four fatalities were reported in Baghdad following explosions near the U.S. embassy.

Saudi authorities announced that they shot down more than 12 drones in the east of the country, with similar incidents reported in Qatar and Kuwait.

On the ground, Israeli strikes in southern Lebanon have caused casualties and population displacement, with some attacks reportedly targeting specific figures.

Meanwhile, Iran has escalated its rhetoric toward the U.S., declaring that the war’s outcome will be decided on the battlefield rather than through political statements.

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps reported civilian casualties, including children, following strikes on Iranian territory.

The conflict, which began on February 28, is rapidly expanding on multiple fronts, raising fears of a broader regional confrontation and serious global security consequences.
