Iran said one of the longest bridges linking Tehran to the city of Karaj was destroyed overnight, while Iranian missiles and drones hit Israel, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Kuwait.

U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth asked Army Chief of Staff Randy George to step down and retire, a U.S. official confirmed to NPR.

As Israel expands its invasion of Lebanon, the White House says President Trump will provide "an important update" to the nation on the Iran war.

Trump's remarks came in response to a question about rising gas prices. He said they would fall once the U.S. leaves Iran, claiming that would happen in "maybe two weeks, maybe three."

NPR has confirmed that at least two U.S. E-3 Sentry aircraft were damaged and more than a dozen U.S. service members were injured in an Iranian missile and drone attack in Saudi Arabia on Friday.

A high-ranking Iranian official has accused the U.S. of planning a ground invasion as part of the next stage in the Iran war, and said such an intervention would be met with force.

An Iranian strike on an air base in Saudi Arabia wounded at least 15 U.S. service members. Israel also said it intercepted a missile launched from Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen.

A U.S. official said several U.S. service members were wounded in the strike and some aircraft were apparently damaged as well. Iran has targeted U.S. bases throughout the region since the war began.

President Trump said he'll hold off on striking Iran's power plants until April 6, postponing a deadline for Iran to let ships transit safely through the Strait of Hormuz.

Iran says no to President Trump's ceasefire plan and publicized a counterproposal that includes war reparations and Iranian sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz.
