Tensions Flare: Iran Threatens "Regional War" If US Attacks

Tensions Rise in Middle East as Iran Warns of Regional War; Gaza Border Reopens

Tensions in the Middle East escalated Sunday as Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei warned that any attack by the United States would ignite a "regional war." The threat came as President Donald Trump has threatened military action against the Islamic Republic, according to the Associated Press (NPR Politics, NPR News).

Khamenei's comments, described as his most direct threat to date, coincided with activity at the Rafah border crossing between Gaza and Egypt, which partially reopened after years of near-complete closure (NPR Politics). Israel announced the opening as a test, a key step as the Israel-Hamas ceasefire moves ahead.

Meanwhile, in the United States, five-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos, detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in Minnesota, was released following a judge's order, Time reported. He boarded a plane in Texas with his father, Adrian Conejo Arias, after Democratic Rep. Joaquin Castro of Texas escorted them back to Minnesota. "Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack," Castro wrote on social media, according to Time.

The reopening of the Gaza border crossing saw ambulances lining up to enter the Egyptian gate of the Rafah crossing on the way to the Gaza Strip, in Rafah, Egypt, according to the Associated Press (NPR Politics).

In other news, Palestinian actor Hiam Abbass, known for her role in "Succession," spoke about the importance of making films like "Palestine 36," calling it "more than an artistic choice – it's a duty," Variety reported. She discussed the difficulties of shooting the historical epic during the war in her home country, calling the film a "victory."
