Middle East crisis – live updates
Israel carried out another wave of strikes on Tehran and Beirut on Wednesday while Iranian missiles continued to fly toward Israel and the Gulf as the war with Iran entered its fifth day.
Explosions were heard across Tehran in the early hours of the morning as the Israeli military announced “broad-scale strikes” on Iranian regime targets. Police stations and Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) headquarters in the Kurdish regions of north-western Iran were also razed by strikes, Kurdish media reported.
Iran’s death toll soared, as estimates of those killed by strikes rose to 800 to 1,500 people in five days of war.
