The U.S.-Israel conflict with Iran is extending into its third day with each side doubling down on sharper responses in the days ahead, deepening fears of a wider war that could rattle the global economy.
Washington and Israel launched massive attacks on Iran on Saturday, killing the Islamic state’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, triggering retaliatory strikes from Tehran.
Tehran has struck back with missiles and drones against Israel and Gulf countries that host U.S. military bases, including the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia.
Civilian infrastructures were also hit by Iran’s retaliatory strikes, including Dubai’s luxury hotel Fairmont The Palm and the Dubai International Airport.
