Analysts believe PM Netanyahu is urging the US towards maximalist strikes.

Deadly blasts, including one that may have been caused by a gas leak, raised anxiety in the country. “Society is waiting for war,” one Iranian said.

As Trump weighs options on a possible strike on Iran, a senior Gulf official told Fox News that Saudi Arabia will not allow the U.S. to use its airspace or bases for such an attack.

The US president says he has told Iran it has to do "two things" to avoid military action, as the US builds up its forces in the Gulf.

U.S. allies and partners in the Middle East again are urging restraint from both the United States and Iran as the Trump administration warns of a possible strike and builds up its military presence in the region.

The Trump administration has targets but no endgame.

Five people have been killed in two separate explosions in Iran which local officials and state media say were caused by gas leaks. One person was killed and 14 injured in a blast at a residential building in the southern city of Bandar Abbas on the Gulf coast, a local official told Iran's semi-official Mehr news agency.

A generation who grew up in a more connected world rebelled against a failing economy and strict social rules.
