On June 13, 2025, Israel launched a large-scale military operation against Iran, targeting more than 100 sites, including nuclear facilities and military installations. The operation was named "Rising Lion," and resulted in the deaths of prominent leaders of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, such as Hossein Salami and Mohammad Bagheri, as well as a number of nuclear scientists.

Iran vowed to respond harshly, while the United States denied any involvement in the attacks, warning Iran against targeting American forces. [2]
The attacks led to disruptions in global markets, with oil prices rising by 12%, and stock indexes sharply declining. [3]
The situation remains tense, with international warnings of wider escalation in the region.
