The conflict in the Middle East continues to escalate as the war between Israel and Iran enters its fourth week. Israel has launched fresh airstrikes targeting Tehran and Beirut, while Iran threatens retaliation against U.S. energy infrastructure. U.S. military operations are being intensified, with additional Marines and an amphibious assault ship sent to the region amidst ongoing tensions. International leaders, including PM Modi, are holding high-level discussions on the situation, reflecting global concerns over energy supply and stability in the Strait of Hormuz. Despite discussions about possibly winding down military operations, recent attacks indicate that both sides are preparing for further confrontations.
