Iran and Iranian-backed militias have fired missiles at Israel and Arab states, apparently hitting the U.S. Embassy compound in Kuwait, while Israel and the United States pounded targets in Iran. The war expanded on Monday with statements of defiance and increasing casualties. In Iran, the Red Crescent Society said the U.S.-Israeli airstrikes killed at least 555 people so far in the Islamic Republic. Kuwait’s defense ministry says several American warplanes have crashed in the country. The U.S. Embassy compound in Kuwait City was also hit. A drone attack targeted a Saudi oil refinery but officials say the drones were intercepted. The Lebanese militant group Hezbollah claimed strikes on Israel, which fired back, killing at least 31 people.
