War Update: Tehran and Tel Aviv Under Fire as Middle East War Enters Day 9

The war involving the United States, Israel, and Iran has entered its ninth day, with massive bombardment reported across the region. Airstrikes and drone attacks are continuing from Tel Aviv to Tehran, causing widespread destruction. Israeli and US forces have launched intense airstrikes in Tehran, targeting key facilities including the Mehrabad International Airport and nearby aircraft fuel depots. The attacks reportedly caused massive fires, with thick smoke rising high into the sky after explosions at the airport and fuel storage areas. Meanwhile, Iran has launched retaliatory strikes against several targets. Iranian drones reportedly attacked areas in Dubai and targeted the US military facility at Ali Al Salem Air Base in Kuwait using the Shahed‑136 drone. Military analysts say the war is entering a new phase where critical infrastructure such as airports, oil depots, and military bases are becoming primary targets. According to experts, Iran’s navy and air force have suffered heavy damage, leaving the country largely dependent on missiles and drones for retaliation. With both sides intensifying attacks, experts warn the conflict could expand further across the Middle East.
