Also Tuesday, the Israeli military said it had launched new attacks across both Tehran and Beirut<\/a>, with those on the Lebanese capital targeting Hezbollah militants.<\/p>\n On Monday, U.S. President Donald Trump<\/a> said \u201cnumerous countries\u201d have told him \u201cthey\u2019re on the way\u201d to help police the Strait of Hormuz<\/a>. But he also suggested some countries\u2019 reluctance showed a lack of reciprocity in defense agreements with the United States.<\/p>\n The war has killed at least 1,300 people in Iran, at least 850 in Lebanon and 12 in Israel, according to officials in those countries.
