— The deadly conflict in the Middle East entered its 11th day on Tuesday, with no letup in military exchanges between Iran, Israel and the United States. Meanwhile, there has been no sign of a diplomatic breakthrough among the relevant parties.
Here’s a quick overview of the latest developments and the impact of the retaliatory attacks on countries directly caught up in the regional crisis:
The United States
— U.S. President Donald Trump told Fox News that it is still possible for Washington to negotiate with Tehran.
“It’s possible, depends on what terms, possible, only possible … You know, we sort of don’t have to speak anymore, you know, if you really think about it, but it’s possible,” Trump said. The remarks came after Trump said Monday that the U.S.-Israeli military strikes against Iran would be over “very soon.”
U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth told reporters that Tuesday will bring the “most intense” strikes against Iran since the war began, noting that “we will not relent” until Iran is “totally and decisively defeated.”
Israel
— Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned that Israel is “not done yet” with its offensive against Iran, saying the attacks have severely weakened the capabilities of the Iranian government.
— The Israeli military said it has begun a new series of airstrikes against Iranian government targets in Tehran. It said later that new missile salvos from Iran targeted the country, with air raid sirens activated in the north, center and south of the country, including Tel Aviv.
