Iran
More airstrikes hit the Iranian capital Tehran on Saturday afternoon. They follow explosions that echoed across Iran’s capital earlier on Saturday morning. The strikes appeared to target downtown Tehran and government buildings there.
The Iranian capital continued to face heavy bombardments from both Israel and the United States on Saturday.
US President Donald Trump vowed "very hard strikes" if the country did not surrender unconditionally. But Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian rejected the idea of surrender immediately: "That we surrender unconditionally, they should take that dream to their grave. What we are committed to are the international law, human frameworks, and the principles they talk about, they should be committed to those principles."
Trump also claimed that Iran had surrendered to its neighbours, as Pezeshkian said that Iran would not strike other countries in the region unless they attack first.
For the past week, Iran fired missiles at numerous other nations in the Middle East, including the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and Kuwait.
The strikes mainly targeted US military bases in the countries, but missiles also struck hotels and infrastructure.
