The conflict is spreading beyond Iran’s immediate theater as Saudi Arabia reports attacks on two airports and the United States, Türkiye and Pakistan deepen security coordination with Riyadh. Iran says it is working with Oman on safe shipping routes through the Strait of Hormuz and may still reach an agreement with Washington under international legal frameworks. Fighting involving Yemen’s Houthis, continued airstrikes, and reports of maritime incidents near Qatar raise the risk of broader regional disruption, including threats to civilian infrastructure, energy markets and commercial shipping.
