A dramatic escalation in Middle East tensions is unfolding after a reported joint US-Israel strike targeting Iran’s leadership, triggering a chain reaction of military operations across the region. Israeli forces have expanded operations into Beirut’s southern suburbs, issuing urgent evacuation warnings that sparked mass panic and traffic gridlock as thousands of civilians attempted to flee. Reports from Lebanese authorities say more than 120 people have been killed, over 680 injured and nearly 90,000 displaced since the violence intensified earlier this week. WATCH
