Iran launches missile attacks on US military bases in Qatar and Iraq, retaliating for US airstrikes on its nuclear facilities. Meanwhile, Israel intensifies its war against Iran, targeting symbolic sites as the conflict threatens to expand across the region

The US has been weighing whether to join Israel's attack by striking Iran's well-defended Fordo uranium enrichment facility, which is buried under a mountain and widely considered to be out of reach of all but America's “bunker-buster” bombs.

Israel asserts it had to launch its airstrike campaign to stop Iran from getting closer to being able to build a nuclear weapon. It came as Iran and the United States had been negotiating over the possibility of a new diplomatic deal over Tehran's programme

US President Donald Trump warned Tehran residents to evacuate, insisting Iran must never obtain nuclear weapons. Israeli strikes have killed over 220 people, while Iran retaliated with hundreds of missiles and drones, killing 24 in Israel

Prime Minister Netanyahu claims Israel now controls Tehran's airspace and is close to neutralising Iran’s nuclear and missile threats. Following Israel's surprise strike, Iran launched over 300 missiles in retaliation. Israel has imposed wartime media restrictions on sensitive operations

Israeli officials had recently informed the Trump administration that they had developed a credible plan to kill Khamenei. After being briefed, the White House made it clear that Trump opposed the move, viewing it as dangerously escalatory

Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi stated that Tehran would cease retaliatory actions if Israeli attacks stopped, as the Iran-Israel conflict entered its third day with escalating strikes and casualties

Uneasy Israelis huddled over their phones for updates about the escalating conflict with Iran, while still trying to go about their lives and enjoy a bit of sunshine.

Iran quickly retaliated by sending a swarm of drones at Israel, and Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei warned of “severe punishment.”

The Minister announced on Thursday that Israeli troops deployed in southern Syria "are prepared to prevent the entry of hostile forces into the area of Druze villages," adding the forces continue to monitor developments with readiness for "various scenarios".

Pope Francis was critical of Israel's war in Gaza, and exceptionally close to the Catholic church there, but had also called on Hamas to release the hostages and condemned the rise in antisemitism

"The Prime Minister issued an instruction for the continuation of the steps to advance the release of our hostages," the office said on Wednesday in a statement.

The official said on Sunday that Ministers voted unanimously in favour of the motion, Xinhua news agency reported.

Baharav-Miara issued a directive prohibiting Netanyahu from taking any action to remove Bar after the High Court temporarily blocked the government's attempt to dismiss him, Xinhua news agency reported.

The United States must push harder for immediate de-escalation rather than merely reiterating its support for Israel’s right to self-defence

The surprise bombardment shattered a ceasefire in place since January and threatened to fully reignite the 17-month-old war

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he ordered the strikes because of a lack of progress in talks to extend the ceasefire. Officials said the operation was open-ended and was expected to expand

According to a statement, Bar was summoned to a meeting and informed that a proposal for his dismissal would be presented to the government this week
