US-Israel Iran War Live Updates

According to reports from the Mehr News Agency, a sudden assault on western Tehran resulted in significant damage to multiple residential structures.

A devastating aerial assault on a motorcycle in the al-Mansouri district of southern Lebanon resulted in the tragic loss of at least two lives, according to the Lebanon National News Agency. This latest incident comes amidst a broader escalation of hostilities, as Israel has been conducting military operations in parts of southern Lebanon, accompanied by a series of deadly attacks that have left a trail of destruction in their wake. Yesterday’s strikes in southern Beirut proved particularly devastating, claiming seven lives and leaving dozens more injured.

Reports from Iranian media indicate that a US-Israeli assault on a residential neighborhood in Mianeh, situated in northwestern Iran, has resulted in the tragic loss of at least five lives.

In a candid conversation with an Iranian official, it became apparent that Tehran has not sought a ceasefire, contrary to speculation.
Iran’s Foreign Minister Araghchi emphasized yesterday that the country’s objective is not a ceasefire, but rather the definitive conclusion of the ongoing conflict.
This stance has been consistently reiterated by Iranian authorities, who also assert their readiness to engage in a prolonged war of attrition lasting at least six months.
From an Iranian perspective, a ceasefire would be counterproductive, as it would grant Israel and the US the freedom to act unilaterally, potentially at any time. In contrast, Iran seeks a comprehensive and lasting resolution to the conflict.

A multitude of Iranian government facilities are currently under attack, according to military reports. In a coordinated effort, fighter jets are being deployed to neutralize potential threats across the country.

Lufthansa is proactively gearing up for potential jet fuel shortages beyond European borders, with the airline’s CEO, Carsten Spohr, pointing to early indicators of supply chain disruptions in Asia stemming from the ongoing conflict in Iran. According to Spohr, in an exclusive interview with the FAZ newspaper, the likelihood of kerosene shortages is higher outside Europe, where some Asian airports have begun to restrict additional flights due to fuel scarcity. Notably, the German airline group has taken a precautionary measure by securing more than 80 percent of its fuel requirements for 2026 through hedging strategies.

In a recent statement, Kuwait’s Defense Ministry revealed that its air defenses successfully intercepted three Iranian cruise missiles and 15 drones over the past 24 hours, effectively countering aerial threats. According to the ministry, since the onset of Iranian aggression, its air defenses have engaged a total of 312 ballistic missiles, five cruise missiles, and 651 drones.

According to Magen David Adom, Israel’s emergency response team, a young girl aged 11 is fighting for her life after sustaining severe shrapnel injuries. Two other individuals, a 13-year-old boy and a 36-year-old woman, are also being treated for moderate shrapnel wounds. The remaining 11 casualties are reported to be in stable condition.

In a series of escalating incidents, Hezbollah has asserted that its forces have successfully targeted Israeli military assets. According to the group, its fighters launched a missile strike against a recently established Israeli artillery outpost in Rabaa Thalathin, while also intercepting an Israeli drone with a surface-to-air missile over Ainata. Furthermore, Hezbollah claims to have engaged an Israeli warplane in aerial combat over Bflay, although the Israeli army has yet to respond to these allegations.
