A US-Israeli airstrike struck a residential home in the city of Arak, killing a 3-day-old infant, a 2-year-old child, their mother, and their grandmother, according to Al Jazeera and Iranian health officials. The strike on the civilian residence drew widespread condemnation and renewed calls for a ceasefire. Arak, an industrial city in central Iran, has been repeatedly targeted during the conflict due to its heavy water reactor and industrial facilities, but this strike hit a purely residential area far from military targets.
