Iran continues large-scale strikes on US bases and Israel despite leadership losses

Iran carried out a new wave of large-scale air strikes overnight and into the morning, targeting US military facilities and Israel, despite reports of significant losses among its military and religious leadership.

According to initial reports, strikes hit multiple locations across the Middle East, including Bahrain, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates and Kuwait. In the UAE, Dubai airport was reportedly targeted again.

The attacks mark a continued escalation in the regional conflict, with Iran demonstrating its ability to sustain operations even after setbacks to its command structure. The scope of the strikes suggests coordinated action aimed at US assets and allied infrastructure across several countries.

There has been no immediate official confirmation of the full extent of damage or casualties. Authorities in the affected countries have not yet released detailed assessments, while air defence systems were reportedly activated in several locations.

The situation remains highly volatile, with concerns growing over further escalation across the region.
