#IsraelIranConflict Escalation of the conflict between Israel and Iran with attacks and reprisals

Today, June 13, 2025, the tension between Israel and Iran has reached a critical point. Israel launched massive air strikes against Iranian nuclear and military facilities, including Tehran and the uranium enrichment plant in Natanz. These attacks, described as "preventive" and dubbed "Rising Lion," resulted in the deaths of two military commanders and at least six Iranian nuclear scientists.

Iran quickly responded with a counterattack of at least 100 drones and has promised a "strong and unlimited response." Ayatollah Ali Khamenei warned Israel of a "bitter and painful fate."

The international community, including Russia and China, has condemned the Israeli attacks, while the United States has denied any direct involvement but has warned Iran against reprisals. This escalation has driven up oil prices and affected stock markets, raising fears of a large-scale regional conflict.

Meanwhile, in Gaza, the conflict with Hamas continues, and the humanitarian situation is critical.
