Country by country, here’s how the unfolding war is affecting the Middle East and beyond

The broadening Iran war has ricocheted across the region and beyond, with nearly every country in the Middle East sustaining damage from missile hits, drone strikes or shrapnel.

UN nuclear watchdog says it’s unable to verify whether Iran has suspended all uranium enrichment

Iran has not allowed the United Nations nuclear agency access to its nuclear facilities bombed by Iran and the United States during a 12-day war in June, according to a confidential report by the watchdog circulated to member states and seen on Friday by The Associated Press.

Clock ticks down as Trump’s threat to Iran nears crunch time

The clock is ticking on US President Donald Trump's threat to launch military strikes against Iran - but even if he gives the green light to his generals and admirals, will they achieve his aims? Hopes of a diplomatic solution rest on last-ditch talks over Tehran's nuclear program in Switzerland between Iranian officials and American negotiators, headed by special envoys, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner.
