Nigeria, March 4 -- The war between the United States and Israel against Iran entered its fifth day today (Wednesday).

Over 900 people have now been killed in the war, the majority of them in Iran.

We bring you major updates on the war from its fourth day.

The US military said its focus in the ongoing war is to eliminate enemy forces or weapons capable of attacking American troops.

In a video statement, the commander of US Central Command, Brad Cooper, said the first 24 hours of their joint operation had been nearly double the scale of the shock-and-awe strikes that began the US-led Iraq War in 2003.

Mr Cooper said the US has struck more than 2,000 targets in Iran since launching its first strike on Saturday.
