Iran War LIVE Updates: Israel vows 'powerful' response; Trump says 'very close' to peace deal

The situation in the Middle East once again escalated on Monday after Iran launched one of its biggest missile attacks on Israel in response to its attacks on Beirut and Lebanon. The strikes are only expected to complicate the mediation efforts to end the conflict in the Middle East that started on February 28, eliminating most of Iran's top leadership, including Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
