Gulf countries have reported new Iranian attacks as the war in the Middle East entered its third week. Sirens sounded in Bahrain ahead of an assault on Sunday while the United Arab Emirates reported a missile attack. Saudi Arabia said it intercepted and destroyed 10 drones over its capital. A day earlier, Iran called for the evacuation of three major UAE ports after accusing the U.S. of using “ports, docks and hideouts” in the Gulf country to launch strikes on Kharg Island, a major oil terminal. Meanwhile, Israel said Iran fired another wave of missiles. Sirens sounded in Tel Aviv and people heard loud booms.
U.S. President Donald Trump says he has pressured around seven countries to send warships to keep the Strait of Hormuz open as fears of a global energy crisis persist and Iranian attacks and threats have choked off shipping in the vital waterway. The U.S. and Israel continued striking targets in Iran on Monday, while Israel has intensified operations against Iran-backed militants in Lebanon, where more than 1 million people have been displaced. U.N. peacekeepers say Israeli ground forces have massed near the border. Iran has responded with drone and missile attacks across the region. Officials say the war has killed at least 1,300 people in Iran, 880 in Lebanon and 12 in Israel.
