Amid fears that the conflict will regionalize, Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of Lebanon’s Iranian-backed Hezbollah militant group, said in a public speech that his group was undeterred by U.S. warnings to stay out of the war.

Maqluba or Maqlooba is a traditional Iraqi,Lebanese, Palestinian,Jordanian, and Syrian dish served throughout the Levant. It consists of meat, rice, and fried vegetables placed in a pot which is flipped upside down when served, hence the name maqluba, which translates literally as “upside-down.” The dish goes back centuries and is found in the Kitab al-Tabikh, a collection of 13th-century recipes.
