Israel conducted airstrikes on Gaza's primary northern city overnight, despite withdrawing from the area weeks earlier, according to residents.
In a significant escalation, Iran-backed militants launched a drone attack in northeastern Jordan near the Syrian border, resulting in the deaths of three US servicemen and injuries to at least 34 others, as reported by US Central Command.
President Joe Biden attributed the attacks to radical Iran-backed militant groups in Syria and Iraq.
Despite denials from Iran, these incidents prompted calls from US politicians for a direct response.
