Lebanon\u2019s count of 517,000 refers to those who registered on the government\u2019s online portal. The cash-strapped government has struggled to accommodate the large number of people who have fled their homes in large parts of southern and eastern Lebanon.<\/p>\n<p>Israel over the past week has called on residents in dozens of villages across southern Lebanon and the entirety of Beirut\u2019s southern suburbs to evacuate as the fighting intensifies.<\/p>\n<p>\u25b6\u00a0Read more<\/p>\n<p>Six Palestinians have been killed this week in interactions with Israeli settlers<\/p>\n<p>Palestinian mourners marched down the main street of the West Bank village of Khirbet Abu Falah Sunday, hoisting high the coffins of three men killed in an interaction with settlers.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier in the day, Israeli settlers had attacked Palestinians near the village, which is east of Ramallah in the Israeli-occupied territory, the military said. Two Palestinians were killed by gunfire and a third died from suffocation, likely due to tear gas, the military said.<\/p>\n<p>The deaths bring the total number of settler-related killings of Palestinians in the West Bank to six this week, and seven in the roughly nine weeks since the start of 2026.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s a major spike. In all of 2025, the UN human rights office reported nine Palestinians killed by settlers.<\/p>\n<p>Sri Lanka plans to issue free visas for evacuated Iranian sailors<\/p>\n<p>Sri Lanka will issue a monthlong visa for the Iranian sailors evacuated outside its waters after a U.S submarine attack sunk another ship in the same area, killing more than 80 sailors.<\/p>\n<p>Public Security Minister Anada Wijepala told the media on Sunday that the government will issue \u201ca free visa\u201d for the Iranian sailors, adding that \u201cit will take sometime for them(sailors) to leave this country.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On Saturday, 204 sailors were transferred to a Sri Lankan naval base from their ship \u201cIRIS Bushehr\u201d which was taken under Sri Lankan custody.<\/p>\n<p>The ship had sought help from Sri Lanka reporting an engine failure. The appeal followed the sinking of the Iranian warship \u201cIRIS Dena by the U.S. torpedo attack, off Sri Lanka\u2019s coast on Wednesday. The Sri Lankan navy rescued 32 sailors and recovered 87 bodies.<\/p>\n<p>The strike marked one of the rare instances since World War II in which a submarine sank a surface warship.<\/p>\n<p>Tensions on Israel\u2019s northern border as military beefs up presence to counter Hezbollah<\/p>\n<p>Israelis along the northern border with Lebanon Sunday watched and worried as the area grew increasingly militarized during yet another round of fighting with the Iran-backed militant group Hezbollah.<\/p>\n<p>Military jeeps and trucks with tanks on them could be seen on roads close to the border.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI believe that our army today will bring order regarding Hezbollah and eliminate them permanently so we can live here in peace,\u201d said Morris Yakuti, a poultry farmer from the area.<\/p>\n<p>Others weren\u2019t so sure.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSince I have enough experience in this area all my life, I think it\u2019s just another circle of war and it will not end this war, so it will happen again and again,\u201d said Harella Matalon Aizenshtadt.<\/p>\n<p>Israel\u2019s renewed offensive began last week after Hezbollah launched rockets toward northern Israel during the war\u2019s opening days.<\/p>\n<p>The subsequent strikes have been the most intense since a November 2024 ceasefire.<\/p>\n<p>The first day of the Iran war was the deadliest, an independent monitoring group says<\/p>\n<p>Armed Conflict Location and Event Data, the U.S-based group known\u00a0as ACLED, said over 43% of the fatalities were documented that day, Feb. 28, in 10 countries. ACLED has documented over 1,000 incidents in the first week of the war across 16 countries.<\/p>\n<p>The deadliest single strike during the first week was on Feb 28 on a\u00a0girl\u2019s school\u00a0near a Revolutionary Guards base in Minab in southern Iran, that killed 168 civilians.<\/p>\n<p>That was followed by another strike on a playground in Shiraz, in central Iran, on March 5, that killed 20 people. Another strike on a residential area in Lamerd, in Fars province, killed 19 on the first day of the war, ACLED said.<\/p>\n<p>Although ACLED recorded fewer strikes on civilian sites in Iran, they caused more causalities, it said. Over 57% of civilian casualties in Iran resulted from 3.4% of the recorded strikes by the US and Israel.<\/p>\n<p>Sirens spread to central Israel in successive barrages from Iran<\/p>\n<p>Moments after residents of southern Israel were warned of incoming ballistic missiles from Iran, sirens sent millions more Israelis in the Tel Aviv metro area and parts of the West Bank into shelters as the army said it had detected another missile attack.<\/p>\n<p>Analyst says separatism will strengthen Iranian government<\/p>\n<p>However disdainful of their government in Tehran, most Iranians are wary of Trump\u2019s courting of Iranian Kurdish groups, said Alex Vatanka, a fellow at the Middle East Institute in Washington, D.C.<\/p>\n<p>Iranians see the U.S. president\u2019s calls to the Kurds and posts on social media as signals that Trump desires not the liberation but rather than the fragmentation of Iran.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat Iranians are by and large hearing is not regime change in Tehran, not this glorious move to a secular democracy and so forth, but basically the dismantling of Iran,\u201d Vatanka said. Talk of separatism, from the Kurds and other minority groups like Baluchis, Ahwazi Arabs and Azeris \u201cis going to undermine that bigger effort aimed at the regime and it will demoralize the opposition.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Vatanka said that territorial losses in Iranian Kurdish areas or perhaps\u00a0three Iranian islands claimed by the United Arab Emirates\u00a0would rally Iranians around the flag if not the authorities against foreign interference.<\/p>\n<p>Saudi Arabia reports its first deaths in the war with 2 killed<\/p>\n<p>The Kingdom\u2019s Civil Defense said Sunday evening that a military projectile that fell onto a residential area killed two foreign-born residents and wounded 12 others in Al-Kharj governorate.<\/p>\n<p>The Civil Defense spokesperson said in a statement that the two killed were of Indian and Bangladeshi nationality, and all wounded are Bangladeshi residents.<\/p>\n<p>These are the first casualties to be reported by Saudi Arabia since the war began a week ago.<\/p>\n<p>Analyst says defections final key signal to instability in Iran<\/p>\n<p>Three key signals might signal fatal cracks in the Iranian government, said Farzan Sabet, researcher at the Geneva Graduate Institute.<\/p>\n<p>Popular uprisings, foreign intervention, and defections from the political and military elites are key signals of big changes in Iranian history, he said. Foreign intervention is clear in the smoke and flames across Tehran from Israeli and U.S. airstrikes, he said, and the latest protest movement in 2026.<\/p>\n<p>But we have yet to see defections that might precipitate change, Sabet said.<\/p>\n<p>Israeli targeting of Iran\u2019s domestic security infrastructure is likely aimed at demoralizing the police and giving opposition groups space to organize, he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt potentially creates a structure where it makes both a kind of popular uprising potentially more likely and more likely to succeed in the future, but it also creates space for the opposition to have organized armed resistance in the core of the country,\u201d Sabet said.<\/p>\n<p>Starmer and Trump discuss military cooperation<\/p>\n<p>British Prime Keir Starmer has spoken to U.S. President Donald Trump about the military cooperation between the two countries in the Middle East.<\/p>\n<p>Trump has rebuked Starmer on several occasions since they last spoke over a week ago over the prime minister\u2019s initial decision not to permit the U.S. military to use British bases in the initial attacks against Iran, describing him at one point as \u201cnot Winston Churchill.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Starmer has now granted permission for \u201cdefensive\u201d actions against Iranian missile sites from U.K. bases after Iran started attacking countries throughout the region.<\/p>\n<p>Starmer\u2019s office in No. 10 Downing Street said the pair discussed the military cooperation between the U.K. and U.S. through the use of bases \u201cin support of the collective self-defense of partners in the region.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Starmer also shared his \u201cheartfelt condolences\u201d following the deaths of six U.S. soldiers.<\/p>\n<p>Israeli drone strike kills three in Gaza, hospital director says<\/p>\n<p>The strike Sunday in the Rimal neighborhood of Gaza City killed the three Palestinians and wounded several others, said Mohamed Abu Selmiya, the director of Shifa Hospital, where the bodies were brought.<\/p>\n<p>The Israeli military had no immediate comment.<\/p>\n<p>Israeli attacks have continued across the strip since the start of the latest war in the Middle East.<\/p>\n<p>More than 72,100 Palestinians have been killed in the war sparked by Hamas\u2019 Oct. 7, 2023 attack into Israel, according to the Gaza Health Ministry. Part of the Hamas-run government, its statistics are seen as generally reliable by the United Nations and independent experts.<\/p>\n<p>Palestinian militants killed some 1,200 people, mostly civilians, in the initial attack and took another 251 hostage. The ceasefire deal ended major military operations and led to the release of all remaining captives but left major questions about Gaza\u2019s future unanswered.<\/p>\n<p>Trump says members of Iranian regime \u2018could qualify\u2019 to take power<\/p>\n<p>The president in an ABC News interview reiterated that he wants a say in who comes to power in Iran once the war is over, warning anew that the new leader \u201cis not going to last long\u201d if the person doesn\u2019t have his approval.<\/p>\n<p>Trump also expressed openness to someone with ties in the current regime.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI would, in order to choose a good leader I would, yeah, I would,\u201d Trump said. \u201cThere are numerous people that could qualify.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He did not specify any Iranian figures who fit his criteria.<\/p>\n<p>US defends allowing India buy Russian oil amid reports Moscow is aiding Iran<\/p>\n<p>Trump has faced blowback in Washington after the Treasury Department announced it would allow India to buy Russian oil until April 4.<\/p>\n<p>The move, which temporarily gives Russia a stream of revenue to fund its war against Ukraine that the U.S. only recently managed to cut off, comes even as Moscow is reportedly sharing information with Iran that could help it target U.S. troops and assets in the Mideast.<\/p>\n<p>But top Trump administration officials say the waiver is motivated by pragmatism.<\/p>\n<p>Energy Secretary Chris Wright said Russian oil being sold to India had been expected to go to Chinese refineries but had been idling at sea.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cInstead of having it wait six weeks to unload there, let\u2019s just pull that oil forward, have it land at Indian refineries and tamp this fear of shortage of oil, tamp the price spikes and the concerns we see in the marketplace,\u201d Wright said in an appearance on CNN\u2019s \u201cState of the Union.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ambassador Mike Waltz, the U.S. envoy to the United Nations, said on NBC\u2019s \u201cMeet the Press\u201d that \u201cit was kind of common sense\u201d to let the oil on idling ships go to India.<\/p>\n<p>Israeli ambassador envisions transitional Iranian government under US-Israeli \u2018guidance\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Michael Leiter, Israeli\u2019s ambassador to the United States, has laid out a vision for a post-theocracy Iran, with Jerusalem and Washington providing \u201cguidance\u201d for a pluralistic transitional government.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat we\u2019re hoping for is that we move into a period of a transitional government where the minorities come together, where the majority of the people come together, all the various opposition parties come together for a transitional government where they can lead the country for a year or so together with the guidance from the United States and Israel and other regional allies,\u201d Leiter told CBS\u2019 \u201cFace the Nation\u201d Sunday morning.<\/p>\n<p>Leiter said Israel has cultivated relations with Iranian ethnic minorities, such as the Kurdish and Baluchi communities. But he said the country\u2019s ethnic Persian majority would need to buy in as well.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe want a united Iran,\u201d he said. \u201cWhat we\u2019re encouraging them to do is to coalesce.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Leiter hailed the Israeli-American alliance that launched the ongoing unilateral war, saying, \u201cWe\u2019ve reached a level of collaboration that we\u2019ve never seen between our two countries and between our two militaries.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Iran\u2019s foreign minister dismisses idea of Trump role in picking new supreme leader<\/p>\n<p>Trump has floated the idea of having a say in the selection of Iran\u2019s next supreme leader. The country\u2019s foreign minister is having none of it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe allow nobody to interfere in our domestic affairs. This is up to the Iranian people to elect their new leader,\u201d Araghchi told NBC\u2019s \u201cMeet the Press.\u201d He adds: \u201cIt\u2019s only the business of the Iranian people, and nobody else\u2019s business.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Trump has been quoted as saying \u201cwe want someone that will bring harmony and peace to Iran\u201d and that he wants to be involved in the appointment, as was the case in Venezuela after U.S. forces captured then-President Nicol\u00e1s Maduro in January.<\/p>\n<p>Israel renews airstrikes<\/p>\n<p>Israel says it has begun another round of airstrikes on Iran.<\/p>\n<p>It was the second wave of strikes announced by the Israeli military on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>More on civilian sites Iranian Red Crescent says were struck<\/p>\n<p>Pirhoussein Koulivand, head of Iran\u2019s Red Crescent Society, said 65 schools and 32 medical facilities, hospitals and pharmacies have been targeted in the war. They are part of the almost 10,000 civilian sites that Red Crescent claimed earlier Sunday had been damaged in the country.<\/p>\n<p>AP could not independently verify the figures.<\/p>\n<p>It came after the Israeli military said Sunday that it had struck more than 3,400 targets in Iran.<\/p>\n<p>U.S. Navy Capt. Tim Hawkins, CENTCOM spokesman, denied targeting civilians in a comment to AP Sunday and accused Iran of deliberately doing so.<\/p>\n<p>Israel says it hit Iranian space agency headquarters in new wave of strikes<\/p>\n<p>The Israeli military said it has completed another round of airstrikes in Teheran, in which it \u201cdismantled\u201d the space agency headquarters, affiliated with the Iranian Revolutionary Guard.<\/p>\n<p>It said the site was \u201cused by the IRGC to advance terrorist activities and monitor the State of Israel and its residents.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Targets also included the Guard\u2019s Internal Security\u2019s command center and 50 of its ammunition bunkers, a compound belonging to its Ground Forces, and a base of the Guard\u2019s volunteer Basij force, the army said.<\/p>\n<p>Israel says Iran has fired a new missile barrage<\/p>\n<p>The Israeli military says Iran has launched a new barrage of missiles toward Israel.<\/p>\n<p>It says air defenses have been activated to intercept the incoming fire.<\/p>\n<p>Sirens warning of incoming missiles sounded in central Israel, including Tel Aviv and parts of Jerusalem.<\/p>\n<p>Switzerland\u2019s government says attack on Iran constitutes a violation of international law<\/p>\n<p>Swiss Defense Minister Martin Pfister, one of Switzerland\u2019s federal council members, said the government believes the attack on Iran constitutes a violation of international law.<\/p>\n<p>The U.S. and Israel \u2014 as well as Iran for its counter attacks \u2014 broke international law\u2019s prohibition on the use of force, Pfister said in comments to SonntagsZeitung that were published Sunday. Switzerland is famously neutral.<\/p>\n<p>Switzerland is governed by a seven-member federal council, who each hold portfolios as government ministers and take turns each year holding the top job of president. Pfister is part of the council and can speak on its behalf.<\/p>\n<p>White House tries to soothe anxiety about rising oil prices<\/p>\n<p>Energy Secretary Chris Wright said there\u2019s currently a \u201c fear premium in the marketplace\u201d but sought to assure Americans that surging fuel prices are a short-term problem.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe never know exactly the time frame of this,\u201d Wright said in an appearance on CNN\u2019s \u201cState of the Union. \u201cBut in the worst case, this is a weeks, this is not a months thing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt in a Sunday appearance on Fox News call the rising \u201ca short-term disruption\u201d that will benefit consumers in the long term.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut ultimately taking out the rogue Iranian regime is going to be a good thing for the oil industry,\u201d Leavitt added. \u201cAnd those prices are going to come back down just like they have over the course of the past year, because of President Trump\u2019s American energy dominance agenda.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Iranian foreign minister says no plans to increase range of its ballistic missiles<\/p>\n<p>Araghchi says Tehran has intentionally limited itself to a range of 2,000 kilometers (1,240 miles) for its ballistic missiles \u201cbecause we don\u2019t want to be felt as a threat by anybody else in the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Araghchi tells NBC\u2019s \u201cMeet the Press\u201d says Iran hasn\u2019t begun any plan to increase that range and that there\u2019s no evidence or intelligence indicating that his country \u201cis going to long-range missiles, let alone those missiles who can reach the United States soil.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The current range puts all of the Mideast and some of Eastern Europe in range.<\/p>\n<p>Sen.
