The US said it had stepped up strikes on Iran to unprecedented levels as both sides in the war threatened to escalate a conflict hitting its two-week mark.
The US-Israeli alliance has hit around 15,000 targets since the war began, and the Pentagon has sent a Marine expeditionary unit to the Middle East.
