On the 7th day of the war, tensions are rising. As the conflicts that began with the attacks of the US and Israel on Iran continue, mutual moves in the region are coming one after another. Israel's intensification of its attacks on Beirut and developments in the Persian Gulf are strengthening concerns that the war could spread to the region, while a notable warning came from Russia.
TENSIONS RISE IN THE REGION
The war that began with the US and Israel's attacks on Iran has entered its 7th day. The Israeli army continues to increase its attacks on Beirut, the capital of Lebanon, while reports of mutual retaliation are still coming from the region.
It has been reported that a US oil tanker caught fire in the Persian Gulf. The United Arab Emirates announced that it had shot down 131 drones in its airspace. Meanwhile, the Tehran administration issued a stern warning to the US after an Iranian warship was sunk in the Indian Ocean yesterday, stating that Washington would "regret this."
US: MORE THAN 30 IRANIAN SHIPS SUNK
The US military announced that more than 30 Iranian ships have been sunk so far. US President Donald Trump claimed in a statement that the US has "destroyed" the Iranian Air Force.
Admiral Brad Cooper, head of the US Central Command (CENTCOM), also shared the latest situation regarding the course of the war. Cooper stated that approximately 200 targets in Iran have been hit in the last 72 hours. He noted that these targets included structures equivalent to the US Space Command in Iran.
Cooper also claimed that since the first day of the war, Iran's ballistic missile attacks have decreased by 90%, and drone attacks by 83%. He expressed that the number of Iranian ships sunk by the US has risen from the previously announced 24 to over 30.
TRUMP CHALLENGES HAMANEY'S SON
The issue of who will succeed the Religious Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei after his death remains uncertain. His 56-year-old son emerges as the strongest candidate, while US President Trump stated that he wants to choose Iran's new leader himself and expressed that this possibility would be "unacceptable" for him.
RUSSIA STEPS IN

Lavrov said, "Russia will do everything in its power to create conditions under which the military attacks of the US and Israel on Iran will become completely impossible."
