The conflict between Israel and Iran revolves around regional influence, the Iranian nuclear program, and Tehran's support for anti-Israel groups such as Hezbollah and Hamas. Israel considers Iran an existential threat and seeks to prevent it from acquiring nuclear weapons through covert and overt strikes. In response, Iran supports militias in Lebanon, Syria, and Iraq. The escalating tensions include cyberattacks, assassinations, and mutual airstrikes by proxy. Despite avoiding full-scale war, the conflict remains a constant source of tension in the Middle East with the risk of the situation exploding at any moment. The international community calls for de-escalation and dialogue, but there have been no tangible results so far.
