War Alert: Iran Launches 61st Wave of Attacks on Israel and US Bases, Strikes Intensify Across Region

On the 19th day of the ongoing conflict, Iran has significantly intensified its offensive against Israel and US military bases across the Gulf region. Iran has launched the 61st wave of missiles and drones, indicating the deployment of some of its most advanced and deadly weapons. Overnight, continuous strikes targeted multiple locations linked to the United States and Israel. Reports suggest at least two people were killed and more than 200 injured in the attacks. Iran carried out coordinated missile strikes across several Israeli cities, including Kafr Qasim in central Israel, where explosions and fires were reported. Panic spread among civilians as sirens sounded and people rushed to find shelter. Meanwhile, amid rising tensions around the Strait of Hormuz, the US military has claimed it conducted strikes on Iranian missile stockpiles in the area. According to reports, multiple 5,000-pound bombs were used to destroy missiles allegedly targeting ships passing through the strategic waterway. The situation continues to escalate, raising fears of a wider regional war.
