#IsraelIranConflict
🔥 What Just Happened?
• Iran has officially withdrawn from nuclear negotiations with the United States.
• This move follows Israel’s “Operation Rising Lion”, a military strike targeting Iran’s nuclear infrastructure, reportedly killing senior military leaders and nuclear scientists.
• Iran has declared the attacks an act of war, suspended nuclear talks, and is likely to retaliate in some form.
🧭 Geopolitical Implications
• Middle East tensions are spiking. This could escalate into a broader regional conflict involving Israel, Iran, the U.S., and potentially other actors like Hezbollah or even Gulf States.
• Increased threats to global oil supply routes, especially the Strait of Hormuz, could follow if Iran retaliates.
• Diplomatic channels are freezing, reducing the likelihood of a peaceful resolution in the near term.
