Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps attacked a site in Iraq’s Kurdistan region that it alleged was being used by Israel’s Mossad intelligence agency to plan attacks against Iran. The Iranian-backed Houthi militant group struck a U.S.-owned container ship in the Gulf of Aden, U.S. Central Command said. The separate strikes came amid rising tensions between the United States and Iran and spurred wider fears that the conflict in Israel could spill out across the Middle East.
