War Flash: Iran Launches 44th Missile Wave, Dubai Hit and Iraq Oil Refinery Burns in Drone Strike

The Middle East war has entered its 14th day with escalating attacks across several countries as Iran, the United States, and Israel continue intense military exchanges. Iranian forces have reportedly launched their 44th wave of missile and drone strikes targeting Israeli positions and strategic sites across the region. Meanwhile, Israeli airstrikes have caused massive destruction in Tehran, including heavy damage near Mehrabad International Airport, where an oil tanker was reportedly destroyed during the bombardment. The conflict is rapidly spreading beyond the main battle zones. In Iraq, a drone strike reportedly targeted an oil refinery in the Kurdistan region, triggering a massive fire and raising fears about energy infrastructure security. At the same time, Iran has also been accused of launching attacks in Dubai, where a major financial center was reportedly hit in what analysts believe could be retaliation for earlier strikes on Iranian economic institutions. The conflict is also intensifying in Beirut, where Israel continues airstrikes targeting Hezbollah positions. With missile barrages, drone strikes, and economic infrastructure attacks expanding across the region, experts warn that the war could further destabilize global energy markets and security.
