Fears are mounting that the US-Israeli conflict with Iran could spiral beyond the Middle East. That’s after a US submarine sank an Iranian warship near Sri Lanka, killing at least 84 people. Tehran has vowed that Washinton will “bitterly regret” the strike, even as another Iranian vessel heads towards Sri Lankan waters. The fighting has entered its sixth day, with reported drone attacks in Azerbaijan and disruptions across the Gulf. India is also feeling the strain, as economic and strategic pressures intensify. Rebecca Bundhun in Mumbai and Blake Sifton in Dubai cover developments for CNA.
