The conflict between Israel and Iran ignited on June 13, 2025, when Israel launched a major airstrike on nuclear and military sites within Iran. The aim of the attack was to prevent Iran from developing a nuclear weapon.

Iran responded by launching drones towards Israel, but most were intercepted. Both sides exchanged threats, and Iran stated that it would respond forcefully at the appropriate time.

Due to the tension, some countries closed their airspace, and some flights were suspended, while the United Nations and major countries called for de-escalation and avoidance of escalation.
