The U.S. and U.K. impose new sanctions on Iran following an unprecedented attack on Israel, raising concerns of a wider conflict in the Middle East.

President Joe Biden vows to continue imposing sanctions to degrade Iran’s military capabilities.

Israel’s war cabinet met on Monday to discuss their response to the unprecedented attack by Iran on Saturday – in which more than 300 missiles and drones were launched. Israel has not confirmed what they have decided to do.
