Tensions continue to escalate across the Middle East as the war in Iran shows no sign of ending. Iranian missiles have been intercepted across the region while Israeli strikes continue in Iran and Lebanon, with hundreds reported dead. As the son of the late Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, emerges as Iran’s new leader, global powers react — with US President Donald Trump warning his appointment is a “big mistake.” In this episode of Europe Today, we bring you the latest from Euronews correspondents across the region, analysis from Brussels, and reaction from the European Parliament in Strasbourg. We also look at the economic impact of the conflict, EU finance ministers’ latest decisions, and President Emmanuel Macron’s “defensive” mission aimed at securing the strategic Strait of Hormuz.
