U.S. President Donald Trump said he hoped allies would send warships to secure the vital Strait of Hormuz, while Iran urged people to evacuate three ports in the United Arab Emirates as its war with the United States and Israel showed no signs of ending.
Iran's call to evacuate the Middle East's busiest port and two other UAE ports marked the first time it had openly threatened a neighboring country's non-U.S. assets.
Tehran said the U.S. had used "ports, docks and hideouts" in the UAE to launch strikes on Kharg Island, home to the main terminal handling Iran's oil exports, without providing evidence.
Meanwhile, Israel's war against Hezbollah has deepened Lebanon's humanitarian crisis, with about 800 people killed and more than 850,000 displaced.
