The Israeli military has launched new strikes on Tehran and Beirut, targeting what it described as "military installations." Israel also announced that its ground troops will "advance and seize additional strategic areas in Lebanon to prevent attacks on Israeli border communities."
Meanwhile, the US embassy in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, was hit by two drones, believed to be launched from Iran. The attack caused a limited fire and minor damage, officials said.
On Monday, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio warned that "the hardest hits" on Iran are "yet to come," signaling further military action.
US President Donald Trump again criticized British Labour leader Keir Starmer for initially denying US forces access to bases in the UK.
The conflict has also sent shockwaves through global markets, with international gas prices surging again—up 30% on Tuesday morning, following a 50% rise on Monday.
The escalation follows strikes by US and Israeli forces on Iran on Saturday, which reportedly killed Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Iran has since retaliated with a wave of attacks across the region. In response, the US has urged Americans in the Middle East to "depart now" amid rising security concerns.
