#IsraelIranConflict Recent Developments (as of June 13, 2025):

* Israeli Strikes on Iran: Israel launched a series of airstrikes targeting Iranian nuclear facilities and military sites, including the Natanz atomic facility and ballistic missile factories. There are reports of senior Iranian military officials and nuclear scientists being killed in these strikes. Israel stated these attacks were aimed at preventing Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon, especially after reports from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) indicating Iran's failure to comply with nuclear non-proliferation commitments and the activation of a third nuclear enrichment facility.

* Iranian Retaliation: In response to the Israeli strikes, Iran launched a wave of drones towards Israel. However, Israel's military reported that most of these drones were intercepted by its air defenses. Iran has vowed a "harsh and decisive" response to Israel's "reckless aggression," and discussions are underway at the highest levels of Iranian leadership regarding the nature and timing of their retaliation
