Israeli warplanes committed a new massacre in Lebanon on Sunday morning, killing 19 people in the town of Seir al-Gharbiya in the south of the country according to the Lebanese National News Agency, most of them women and children. 

Israel also struck a seaside hotel in Beirut late on Saturday, killing four people. It claimed to have targeted commanders from the Iranian Revolutionary Guards' Quds Force present in Lebanon. More than 150 Iranians have left the country following warnings.

Israel's military launched a new wave of strikes across Tehran on Sunday after apocalyptic scenes in the city the night before when oil facilities were bombed. The Israeli military also said it would attack every successor of Iran's slain Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.

In the Gulf, where Iranian attacks have continued on cities, Kuwait's interior ministry said on Sunday that two of its officers were killed "while performing duties," according to a post on X. It did not provide details on the circumstances of their deaths, but Kuwait has ​been intercepting drones ​and missiles launched from Iran following US ​and Israeli attacks ​on ⁠the country. One tower in Kuwait was ablaze Saturday night following a strike.
