#IsraelIranConflict The Israel–Iran conflict escalated dramatically in June 2025 when Israel launched a direct airstrike campaign—“Operation Rising Lion”—targeting Iran’s nuclear facilities, missile factories, and top military leaders. Among the casualties were senior IRGC commanders and prominent nuclear scientists. In response, Iran launched around 100 drones toward Israel, many of which were intercepted. The operation comes amid rising tensions over Iran’s uranium enrichment and growing fears of a regional war, with global oil markets reacting sharply. The situation remains volatile, with both sides warning of further retaliation.
