Live: One killed and over 60 wounded by Iranian attack on Kuwait

The Israeli army has struck several areas in Nabatieh, south Lebanon, despite coming to a ceasefire agreement with Beirut in Washington. 

The areas targeted include a road that lies between Kfar Reman and Habboush and a roundabout in the the town of Kfar Tebnit.

Earlier, Israel and Lebanon agreed to implement a ceasefire but said it would require a "complete cessation" of fire by Hezbollah. 

So far, Israel has killed over 3,400 people in Lebanon since the start of March. 

An Israeli drone has targeted a car between the towns of Kfar Kila and Zefta Nabatieh, south Lebanon, according to the National News Agency. 

The attack comes despite an earlier announcement that Israel and Lebanon agreed to implement a ceasefire following US-led talks on Wednesday.

Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich calls  an end to the Oslo Accords and rejected the prospect of a future Palestinian state.

"And indeed, in this term, in my role at the Defense Ministry, I am leading the mission of killing that terrible idea of dividing the land and handing over territory."

The death toll from four Israeli attacks targeting residential building across Gaza City has risen to nine, including four children, Al Jazeera reports. 

Al Jazeera is reporting that at least six have been killed and several others wounded after Israeli attacks targeted a residential area in Gaza City.

According to local news outlets and footage circulating online, a residential tower north west of the city is now engulfed in flames following the attack. 

Several areas in the city are battling similar fires as a result of the Israeli strikes. Multiple people have been injured as a result, with some reportedly in critical condition.

US President Donald Trump has told aides privately that he would consider putting an end to a truce deal with Iran if it killed American troops, the Wall Street Journal reported citing US officials. 

The officials indicate that repeated attacks have raised the pressure on Trump, casting doubt over the long-term viability of the ceasefire.

Israeli forces shelled areas in south western Syria and advanced into the countryside of the Daraa province late on Wednesday, according to its state-news agency.

According to the report, the army fired two artillery shells that landed near Saisoun village, located in the western Daraa countryside. 

Three Israeli vehicles reportedly pushed into Wadi al-Raqad Road in the Yarmouk Basin area and fire toward agricultural land, before withdrawing from the location.

Elswhere in Quneitra, south west of the country, state-media added that Israeli forces targeted the area surrounding al-Mantara Dam with several artillery shells.

In a joint statement, Israel and Lebanon have agreed to implement a ceasefire but said it would require a "complete cessation" of fire by Hezbollah.

After US-led talks in Washington, the two states also agreed to create "pilot zones" in which the Lebanese armed forces "will take exclusive control of the territory to the exclusion of all non-state actors."

Further discussions aimed at "reaching a comprehensive agreement" will take place the week of 22 June, the statement added. 

Lebanon’s National News Agency reports that Israeli fighter jets “deliberately” targeted a medical team in the town of Zebdine, in the Nabatieh district.

The attack killed one paramedic and wounded another member of the medical team, according to the report.

US President Donald Trump has again insisted that Washington wants control of Iran’s stockpile of highly enriched uranium.

Asked about the issue during remarks in the Oval Office, Trump said: “I want to get it.”

He added that only the United States and China have the necessary “equipment” to retrieve the material.

“We will go get it,” Trump told the reporter

US President Donald Trump says the Strait of Hormuz will reopen “immediately upon signing” an agreement with Tehran.

Speaking to reporters, Trump said he was seeking to separate efforts to reopen the strategic waterway from the ongoing fighting in Lebanon.

As Israeli forces continue heavy attacks across southern Lebanon, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has insisted military operations there will proceed as planned.

“It will open up quickly,” Trump said of the strait.

Bahrain says it has arrested 15 people accused of working for Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, hours after Tehran launched attacks on the kingdom and neighbouring Kuwait.

The interior ministry said investigations were continuing to identify all individuals allegedly connected to the suspected Iranian cell.

The arrests come amid an ongoing security crackdown launched after Iran began attacking Bahrain in late February. Authorities have detained dozens of people accused of collaborating with Tehran.

Last month, Bahrain sentenced nine people to life imprisonment for what it described as “hostile and terrorist acts” carried out in cooperation with the IRGC.

In April, authorities revoked the citizenship of 69 people accused of supporting Iranian attacks on the country.

Bahrain is home to a large Shia population, many of whom have long complained of political and economic marginalisation. The government denies discriminating against Shia citizens and has repeatedly accused Iran of fomenting unrest in the kingdom.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi says communication with the US has not been cut off, but negotiations have yet to make any progress.

Speaking to Lebanon’s Al Mayadeen, Araghchi said both sides were currently reviewing the texts exchanged during the talks.

US Central Command has rejected an Iranian claim that damage to part of Kuwait International Airport’s passenger terminal was caused by a malfunctioning US-made Patriot missile system.

In a post on X, Centcom accused Iran of carrying out a deliberate attack on the facility.

“Iran struck the civilian airport with drones in a deliberate, calculated, and unjustified attack,” Centcom said.

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio says the Trump administration has no plans to leave Nato but will continue pressing for significant reforms within the alliance.

Speaking to lawmakers, Rubio said President Donald Trump will attend the Nato leaders’ summit in Ankara on 7-8 July, where he is expected to renew calls for member states to increase defence spending.

“The president himself will be attending the next Nato, a meeting of heads of state where all of these points will be made clear,” Rubio said.

“We’re still in Nato, but Nato needs significant changes, and the president has made that clear.”

Trump has recently criticised some Nato members, particularly Spain, over refusing to allow the use of their military bases during the US-Israeli war on Iran.
