Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said the country's policies would remain the same whether or not war resumes, after renewed threats from US President Donald Trump to begin bombing again. The remark lands amid persistent tension between the two nations.

Israeli air strikes hit the Islamic University in Gaza City along with several other sites on Friday. At least seven people were killed, including three security guards stationed at the campus.

A Saudi-led military coalition said it intercepted and destroyed two missiles launched by Yemen's Houthi movement toward Saudi territory. The intercept is the latest in a monthslong escalation of Houthi strikes on Saudi airports, oil infrastructure and military sites.

Israel said all land crossings with the West Bank will be closed on the day of next week's election, a day after its forces entered Hebron and displaced an estimated 2,000 residents. The closures follow the killing of two Israeli soldiers in the territory and a pledge by officials for a tougher stance on militancy.

Houthi forces launched a missile attack on Aden's airport and a coastguard base in Yemen. The same wave of strikes reportedly also hit targets inside Saudi Arabia.

Iran blamed the United States for the collapse of nuclear negotiations and urged a new attempt at talks. Tehran warned that even limited strikes would trigger a response several times greater.
