Iranian attacks kill a dozen across Israel, UAE, and Kuwait
Rising regional tensions are described as Iran expands its retaliation across Israel and Gulf states after alleged U.S. and Israeli strikes, with casualties and ongoing fighting reported across multiple fronts.
– Iran’s missiles hit a residential area in Israel, killing at least nine people and leaving around 20 missing as Tehran broadened its retaliatory attacks following surprise strikes attributed to the U.S. and Israel that reportedly killed Iran’s top leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
– Israeli emergency responders worked to recover people from rubble,with fears that the death toll could rise.
– Iran’s retaliation extended to the Gulf: the United Arab Emirates confirmed Iranian drone and missile attacks that killed three people and wounded 58 others. Iran launched about 165 ballistic missiles toward the UAE (152 destroyed, 13 fell into the sea) and 541 attack drones (506 destroyed).
– Kuwait reported one death and 20 injuries after attacks,though none of the casualties were Kuwaiti citizens; Kuwait’s army said it intercepted missiles and drones.
– An Iranian drone reportedly attempted to strike a building in Dubai but did not detonate.
– The widening confrontation continued as Israel carried out strikes inside Iran, with explosions reported in Tehran for a second consecutive day; Israeli officials said the strikes targeted Iran’s military command structure and missile capabilities, following the joint U.S.–Israel operation that killed Khamenei.
– The broader narrative includes regional protests and retaliation, with celebrations and clashes in parts of Pakistan after attacks on the U.S. consulate in Karachi, and Iran’s interim leadership vowing continued retaliation against Israeli and U.S.interests.
Iranian attacks kill a dozen across Israel, UAE, and Kuwait, as campaign expands
An Iranian missile strike on a residential area in Israel killed at least nine people and left 20 others missing Sunday, authorities said as Tehran expanded retaliatory attacks across the region following surprise attacks from the U.S. and Israel that killed Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
Israeli emergency responders continued searching through rubble hours after the strike hit a home during an overnight barrage of missiles and drones. Authorities said multiple people were pulled from debris while rescue operations remained ongoing amid fears the death toll could rise.
Iran’s retaliation also reached the Gulf, as the United Arab Emirates confirmed that Iranian drone and missile attacks killed three people after impacts were reported in populated areas, expanding the conflict beyond Israel and Iran and raising alarm among regional governments hosting U.S. military forces.
