He also indicated that Washington was engaged in “serious discussions” aimed at ending its military operations in Iran. The Iranian army also reported drone strikes on defence-related facilities in Israel, including sites associated with Elbit Systems. In Israel, local media reported damage to petrochemical facilities in Haifa Bay following missile fire from Iran and Lebanon. In the Gulf, Qatar condemned what it described as Iranian strikes targeting infrastructure in Kuwait, including a camp, a power station, and a desalination facility. Overall, the rapid escalation underscores the growing risk of a broader regional conflict, as diplomatic channels remain uncertain and military actions continue to expand across multiple theatres.
