5:13:01Now PlayingConflict has widened in the Middle East following US-Israeli strikes on Iran over the weekend which killed its Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei.
The war has entered its third day, with the conflict spreading to Lebanon overnight as Israel and Hezbollah exchanged fire.
Explosions were reported in southern Beirut, while Israel ordered residents of 50 towns and villages in Lebanon to leave ahead of strikes.
Donald Trump has said "combat operations" against Iran will continue "until all of our objectives are achieved" in a video address, while UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has said the UK is going to allow the US to take defensive action from British military bases but "will not join offensive action now".
