From BBC News.

Apparent Iranian attacks have been reported across the Gulf, including in Iraq and Kuwait, while a Dubai high-rise was hit by an apparent drone attack.

New Israeli strikes have killed several people in Lebanon, including at least eight in Beirut’s seafront area, while Israel is also carrying out "wide-scale" attacks on Iran.

Meanwhile, oil prices have risen, reaching $100 a barrel at one point, as three more cargo ships are attacked in the Gulf. This comes despite 32 countries agreeing on Wednesday to release 400m barrels of oil reserves, in an effort to calm the markets.
