Israel-Iran war, triggered by coordinated U.S. and Israeli airstrikes on Iran in an operation widely referred to as Epic Fury / Roaring Lion, has entered its third day on March 2, 2026. Heavy strikes have continued across Iran, hitting ballistic missile sites, air defenses and key infrastructure while Iranian forces retaliate with missile and drone barrages targeting Israel and U.S. bases across the Gulf region. The conflict has expanded beyond Iran’s borders with attacks and explosions reported in several Gulf states, and with allied Hezbollah launching rockets and drones from Lebanon. The violence has caused hundreds of casualties, including the first confirmed U.S. service member deaths, widespread damage, and disruptions to air travel and global oil markets amid fears of further regional escalation.
