Iran says Israel committed environmental crimes in Tehran Iran’s foreign minister, Abbas Araghchi, on Monday accused Israel of committing a crime against the environment after strikes hit fuel tanks in Tehran. “Israel's bombings of fuel depots in Tehran violate international law and constitute ecocide,” Araghchi said. He warned that contamination of soil and groundwater could cause long-term damage, adding that Israel “must be punished for its war crimes". Footage after the US-Israeli bombing of Tehran’s oil depots showed the sky covered in dark smoke, and witnesses said oil fell like rain in some areas after the strikes.

Hidden behind a tall hedgerow in the English countryside, Charlie Cumming stood at the fence of an air force base, camera raised towards a US B-1 Lancer bomber parked nearby. He was one of hundreds of curious onlookers who flocked to the airfield at RAF Fairford in the southwestern county of Gloucestershire since US aircraft began arriving on March 6, days after the start of the US-Israeli war with Iran. "I've come just for pictures for my Instagram, really," said the 17-year-old. "It's a bit concerning they're here, but I still think they're really cool to see."

Trump says US, Israel share similar war objectives President Donald Trump said the United States and Israel are largely aligned in their military objectives in the war with Iran, though he acknowledged the two allies may not have identical goals. “I think we have similar objectives, really, but could be a little bit different,” Trump said. “They have a lot of our weapons. They have our planes. They have our missiles. They have our Patriots. They have a lot of our weapons. We have the best we make, the best weapons in the world,” he said.  Money sticks out from the pocket of US President Donald Trump as he boards Air Force One on 15 March 2026 in Florida.
