Iran has vowed revenge as its capital Tehran was hit by US-Israel missiles targeting a century-old medical research centre, a bridge near the steel plants.
The new wave of attacks came a day after US President Donald Trump threatened to bomb Iran back to “the Stone Ages”.
During his address to the nation on Wednesday, Trump said the US is close to completing its core objectives in Iran, but didn’t offer a firm timeline for when the conflict might end. Iran says Tehran will continue to “fight back”.
Iran’s military cautions that the war will continue until the “humiliation” and “surrender” of its enemies, and warns against a possible US ground invasion.
The Israeli military claims it has killed more than 40 Hezbollah members over the past 24 hours, while the Lebanese group says it carried out several attacks on Israelis in southern Lebanon and northern Israel. Lebanon’s PM Nawaf Salam says the situation in the country is “very critical”.
