#IsraelIranConflict The Israel-Iran conflict has significantly escalated. On June 13, 2025, Israel launched "Operation Rising Lion," a major offensive targeting Iranian nuclear facilities, military sites, and leadership, citing Iran's rapidly advancing nuclear program. This unprecedented direct attack by Israel follows months of heightened tensions and previous covert operations.

In retaliation, Iran launched multiple waves of ballistic missiles and drones at Israeli cities and military bases. While the US aided Israel in intercepting many projectiles, some hit Tel Aviv, causing damage and injuries. UN officials are urging restraint amidst fears of a wider regional war. Both sides have suffered casualties, including top Iranian military and nuclear scientists.
