#IsraelIranConflict The Israel-Iran conflict is a long-standing geopolitical and ideological rivalry. Iran opposes Israel's existence and supports proxy groups like Hezbollah and Hamas, which Israel considers terrorist organizations. Israel, in turn, views Iran’s nuclear ambitions and regional influence as existential threats. Tensions have escalated through cyberattacks, assassinations, and airstrikes, especially in Syria, where Israel targets Iranian military infrastructure. The conflict remains largely indirect but risks regional escalation, particularly amid broader instability in the Middle East. Recent events, such as Iran’s drone and missile attacks on Israel in April 2024 and Israeli retaliatory strikes, have further heightened the threat of open warfare.
