The White House said Israel consulted with it before launching widespread airstrikes on Gaza that killed at least 400 on Tuesday.

Thousands of Palestinians in Gaza scrambled to get their loved ones to hospitals, saying there was no warning before a wave of deadly Israeli airstrikes hit in the early hours of Tuesday, during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.

The United States and Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen are both vowing escalation after the U.S. launched airstrikes to deter the rebels from attacking military and commercial vessels on one of the world's busiest shipping corridors.

The U.S. carried out new airstrikes on Yemen, expanding the biggest U.S. military operation in the Middle East since President Trump took office.

The Pentagon says it will continue attacking targets in Yemen until Houthi rebels stop attacking shipping in the Middle East. The U.S. launched air strikes targeting the Iranian-backed group over the weekend with Houthi officials saying at least 53 people were killed.
