Iran Launches Missile and Drone Barrage; Regional Conflict Escalates Across Middle East
Iran has launched a missile and drone barrage targeting Kuwait and Bahrain, marking a significant escalation in regional conflict. Hezbollah entered the broader US-Israeli confrontation with Iran the day after hostilities began on February 28, firing rockets and drones into Israel, as Israeli officials sought to use the crisis to push the militia away from Israel's northern border. France is reported to be seeking to reassert its influence in Lebanon amid the widening instability.
