Fresh waves of attacks swept across the Middle East on Monday, marking the tenth day of the Iran war. Following a joint U.S.-Israel strike on Iran, Tehran launched new assaults targeting Israel and several Gulf countries. Al Jazeera reported one Israeli fatality from Iranian rocket fire. Hours after Mojtaba Khamenei was named Iran’s new Supreme Leader, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps announced new missile operations. Israel responded with airstrikes on Iranian targets, claiming to have killed senior Quds Force commanders in Beirut.

According to Reuters and CNN, explosions were heard in Tehran and Beirut, where fires broke out in a hotel. Bahrain’s main oil refinery was hit by a drone attack injuring 32 people, including a two-month-old infant. The UAE, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and Qatar all reported intercepting drones or missiles near key energy facilities. Iran’s foreign ministry dismissed accusations of attacks on Turkey, Cyprus, and Azerbaijan, calling some claims staged.

Iranian officials ruled out ceasefire talks, saying mediation was meaningless under current conditions, as regional tensions continued to escalate.
