Third Week of Strikes: Iran Says It Controls Hormuz as Fighting Spreads to Tehran, Israel and Lebanon

The conflict is spreading to Lebanon and has prompted the U.S. embassy in Beirut to suspend operations, raising the prospect of wider regional disruption and economic fallout for global energy and shipping markets.
