Iran war day 121: Iran attacks Bahrain, Kuwait as US strikes near Hormuz
Could Israel sabotage the deal? The United States has bombed Iran for a second straight day, striking Sirik, Bandar-e Lengeh and Qeshm Island after a drone attack on a commercial vessel near the Strait of Hormuz. Air raid sirens sounded in Bahrain, while Kuwait said its air defences were responding to "hostile missile and drone threats", raising heightened tensions across the region. Meanwhile, Israel carried out new attacks on southern Lebanon, killing at least one person, just a day after reaching a framework agreement with the Lebanese government aimed at ending the fighting. Tehran-based political analyst Abas Aslani said Iran views the waterway as a deterrent against future US attacks.

BBC sees destroyed villages in Israeli-occupied southern Lebanon
The BBC has been given rare access to the part of southern Lebanon that is under Israeli occupation, as part of a humanitarian convoy of the Order of Malta distributing aid to Christian villages that have been isolated because of the war. The mission happened on Thursday, a day before the announcement of a new ceasefire in the conflict between Israel and the Shia Muslim armed group Hezbollah. The team saw the Israeli military presence but was not allowed to film much of the journey. Israel says it has no intention of withdrawing its troops from Lebanon, and that its plan is to create a security zone along the border, Hezbollah-free, to protect its northern communities from the group's rockets and drones. In the occupied areas, mainly Shia villages have been completely destroyed by Israeli air strikes or demolitions.
