The widening war between Iran, Israel and the United States is now rippling across the Middle East and beyond. Missiles, drones and falling debris have struck or affected nearly every country in the region.
Several governments are reporting casualties. Embassies have shut down, airspaces have closed and critical trade routes are under pressure.
On Friday, the seventh day of the conflict, Israeli warplanes struck targets in Beirut and Tehran, while Iran launched another round of retaliatory attacks against Israel and several Gulf states.
There were few signs the fighting was slowing. US President Donald Trump ruled out negotiations with Iran and called for “unconditional surrender.”
The war began with a joint US-Israel strike on Iran, and governments around the world have since urged their citizens to leave the region on commercial flights where possible.
Airspace closures have spread. Cruise ships and oil tankers have struggled to pass through the Strait of Hormuz, a key global energy corridor. Major airlines have cancelled flights, while several countries have organised evacuation flights for their nationals.
Here is a country-by-country snapshot of how the war is affecting the region, based on reporting from the Associated Press.
IRAN
Death toll: At least 1,230 people have been killed, according to Iran’s Foundation of Martyrs and Veterans Affairs. It is unclear how many are civilians.
The figure does not include casualties from the latest Israeli strikes on Tehran.
Witnesses described the bombardment of the capital as particularly intense. Homes shook from the blasts, while explosions were also reported around the western city of Kermanshah, an area with several missile bases.
Israel’s military said Friday it had targeted an underground emergency bunker used by Iranian leadership. The attack involved more than 50 fighter jets and over 100 munitions.
Major casualty incident: More than 165 people were killed when an elementary school in Minab was struck, according to Iran’s state-run IRNA news agency.
Iran blamed Israel and the United States. Neither country has accepted responsibility.
Satellite images and expert analysis suggest the blast may have been caused by US airstrikes targeting a nearby Revolutionary Guard facility, according to the Associated Press.
Asked about the explosion earlier this week, US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said: “All I can say is that we’re investigating that. We, of course, never target civilian targets.”
Damage: Iranian state media says the strikes have hit hospitals, schools, pharmacies, police stations, missile launchers and government facilities across the country.
Iran’s Red Crescent Society says attacks have affected 174 cities.
Airspace: Closed.
ISRAEL
Death toll: Eleven civilians have been killed, according to Israeli authorities.
Those killed include three siblings aged 16, 15 and 13, a Filipina caregiver escorting a woman to a shelter, and a volunteer medic who was a mother of three.
Major incident: An Iranian strike in Beit Shemesh killed nine people.
Damage: Iranian missiles have hit several sites including:
A synagogue and public shelter in Beit Shemesh
An apartment building in Tel Aviv
A road in Jerusalem
Police also reported a warhead landing near Jerusalem’s Old City, close to several holy sites.
The Israeli military does not disclose damage to military bases or sensitive facilities.
Airspace: Closed.
LEBANON
Death toll: 217 people killed and 798 wounded, according to Lebanon’s health ministry.
Israel has carried out heavy strikes on the southern suburbs of Beirut after ordering residents to evacuate.
Israel says the strikes targeted Hezbollah positions.

Israel has also deployed ground troops to southern border areas.
The International Committee of the Red Cross says hundreds of thousands of people have been displaced.
Airspace: Partially open, though many airlines have canceled flights.

Satellite images reviewed by the Associated Press show the main building destroyed, with smoke rising from the site at Port Shuaiba.
Missiles fired toward Kuwait on Thursday triggered air defense systems.
Airspace: Closed.
UNITED ARAB EMIRATES

An oil tanker flying the Bahamas flag exploded while docked near Khor al-Zubair port, a security official told the Associated Press.
Earlier this week, drones targeted areas near the U.S. consulate in Irbil, causing fires and property damage.
Iraq also suspended production at a major oil field due to disruption in the Strait of Hormuz, pushing global oil prices higher.
Airspace: Closed.
JORDAN
Falling debris from intercepted Iranian missiles injured five people, Jordanian police said.
Airspace: Open but heavily restricted.
