- *International Involvement*: The United States, United Kingdom, France, and Jordan have provided support to Israel, while Russia has been trying to prevent further escalation. The conflict has drawn global attention, with fears of a wider regional war.

- *Historical Context*: The Iran-Israel conflict has its roots in the 1979 Iranian Revolution, which led to a shift in Iran's stance on Israel. Since then, Iran has supported various militant groups in the Middle East, while Israel has targeted Iranian military officials and infrastructure.
