00:00The Middle East is on edge right now.
00:02Iran has reportedly targeted Gulf neighbors after U.S. strikes on Iranian military sites,
00:07and the situation is escalating fast.
00:10Missiles and drones were launched toward the Strait of Hormuz,
00:13one of the world's most critical oil routes.
00:16U.S. forces intercepted the attacks as sirens blared across Kuwait and Bahrain.
00:21At the same time, the U.S. hit coastal military sites inside Iran.
00:26Iranian media says warning shots were also fired near American naval vessels in the Gulf.
00:31But the tension isn't stopping there.
00:33In Lebanon, an Israeli strike reportedly killed several Lebanese soldiers,
00:38including a general, adding another dangerous layer to the conflict.
00:42Iran's foreign minister also fired back at Lebanon's president
00:46after accusations that Tehran was using Lebanon as leverage in regional negotiations.
00:52And behind closed doors, peace talks appear to be collapsing.
00:56A senior Iranian official says any possible deal depends on the release of $24 billion in frozen Iranian assets.
01:04Iran is now warning that if negotiations fail, the region could be heading toward a much wider war.
01:11The world is watching closely because one wrong move could change everything overnight.
