Israeli airstrikes hit a hotel in central Beirut, killing at least four people and wounding around ten. The Israeli Defense Forces stated that the strikes were aimed at key commanders of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps who were "working to implement terrorist plans against Israel" from Lebanese territory.

At the same time, Kuwait's capital was struck by a barrage of rockets and drones. Two Kuwaiti border guards were killed — Lieutenant Colonel Abdullah Imad al-Sharah and Captain Fahd Abdulaziz al-Mahmud. Kuwait's airport fuel evacuation center and a high government building in the city were still burning the following morning, with firefighters working to extinguish the fires.

Apocalyptic scenes were also filmed in Tehran, where US-Israeli strikes destroyed five oil installations. Iran's National Oil Corporation confirmed damage to four petroleum storage facilities and a transport center in Tehran and Alborz. A high-rise building in Kuwait's main commercial district was also on fire, visible in footage spreading rapidly online.

The intensity of the conflict shows no signs of abating — the Israeli military also reported destroying Iranian command structures in Lebanon, claiming it is taking all measures to reduce risk to the civilian population.
