#IsraelIranConflict The Israel–Iran conflict is a tense standoff lasting several decades between two Middle Eastern countries with deeply opposing political and religious stances. The feud stems from after the Iranian Revolution in 1979, when Iran declared it did not recognize the existence of the State of Israel and supported anti-Israel organizations such as Hezbollah (in Lebanon) and Hamas (in Gaza). Meanwhile, Israel views Iran as the greatest threat to its national security, particularly concerning Tehran's nuclear program.
The conflict often occurs indirectly through cyberattacks, assassinations, and Israeli airstrikes on Iran-affiliated targets in Syria. Recently, tensions escalated after events in Gaza and Lebanon, raising concerns about a comprehensive regional war.
Both sides have different strategic interests and international allies, making this conflict not only bilateral but also impacting the entire Middle Eastern landscape.
