US-Israel Intensify Strikes on Iran as Tehran Retaliates Across Gulf 
The US and Israel escalated airstrikes on Iran for a fourth consecutive day, targeting command centers, missile sites and strategic state facilities after President Donald Trump said he rejected Tehran’s alleged bid to resume negotiations. Iran retaliated with hundreds of missiles and drones against Israel and Gulf states, striking US bases and energy infrastructure, with the Red Crescent reporting 787 deaths in Iran and billions of USD in damage as oil prices surged amid closure of the Strait of Hormuz. Fighting expanded to Lebanon as Israel acknowledged ground operations against Hezbollah, while Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu said the campaign aimed to reshape conditions in Iran, signaling limited prospects for de-escalation.
