Fears of further escalation in the Middle East have grown after Iran and its allies threatened retaliation against Israel. Iran's representative at the United Nations announced that the Lebanese militia Hezbollah would attack Israel 'in depth' and not limit itself to military targets.

The US has increased its military presence in the region. Israel is preparing for possible attacks from multiple fronts and is discussing the possibility of entering into an all-encompassing war.

The Hisbollah has fired dozens of rockets at Israel in response to Israeli attacks in Lebanon. The tensions in the region have led to the evacuation of civilians and the closure of embassies.

The US President Joe Biden has criticized the timing of the killings of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh and Hezbollah's second-in-command Fuad Shukur, as it hampers the negotiations for a ceasefire and the release of Hamas hostages.

The situation is further complicated by ongoing protests against the Israeli government and the suspension of international flights to Israel.
