Fighters jets fly over in Israel as strikes continue in Iran, Lebanon

Fighter jets flew over Israel on Saturday (March 7) as it continued its air strikes against Iran and Lebanon's Hezbollah. 

Israel and Iran traded attacks on Saturday as the war entered its second week, while Tehran issued an apology to neighboring states for its "actions," in an apparent bid to ease regional anger at Iranian strikes on Gulf Arab civilian targets.

The U.S.-Israeli war on Iran has already spilled beyond Iran's borders, as Tehran has responded by hitting Israel and Gulf Arab states hosting U.S. military installations and Israel has attacked Lebanon's Iran-backed Hezbollah armed group.
