Hezbollah is firing barrages of rockets into Israel almost daily.

Yemen’s Houthi rebels are targeting ships in the Red Sea and earlier this week launched missiles at central Israel.

And other Iran-linked armed groups in Iraq have targeted Israel.

A range of diplomatic efforts has proved unsuccessful.
