The conflict in the Middle East is rapidly expanding across the region as the U.S. and Israel-led war with Iran enters its sixth day.
Images published Thursday showed destruction across Tehran after nearly a week of strikes on Iran’s capital.
Iran has retaliated by launching a wave of missiles and drones at Israel, as well as targeting U.S. allies in the region.
Explosions have been reported in Qatar and Bahrain, while oil-rich Azerbaijan said it was attacked by two Iranian drones and Tehran claimed naval fighters had struck a U.S. tanker in the north of the Persian Gulf.
U.S. President Donald Trump has said the Iran war could last for four to five weeks but warned the campaign could also “go far longer than that.”
