The US is deploying dozens of refueling aircraft to Israel in preparation for a potential expansion of strikes on Iran, while the IRGC vows to continue retaliatory attacks until calm returns to southern Iran. The Lebanese army redeployed to two southern towns under a framework deal with Israel, and the UN chief called for a new diplomatic push amid escalating US-Iran hostilities. Israeli settlement activists were detained after illegally crossing into Syria.
