Escalating tensions between Iran and Israel have raised concerns of a broader regional conflict as both sides exchange missile attacks. Despite calls for a cease-fire, fighting between Israel and Hezbollah continues with renewed bombardment in Beirut’s southern suburbs.
Israel vows retaliation against Iran, with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warning of severe consequences. The U.S. stands in solidarity with Israel, promising to work together to ensure Iran faces repercussions for its actions.
Iran describes its assault as defensive in response to Israeli aggression in Lebanon and Gaza, targeting military facilities. Tehran warns of a stronger response if provoked further by Israel.
Fears of an all-out war between Iran and the U.S. loom as the conflict intensifies, with both sides showcasing military strength. The international community, including the United Nations and the European Union, calls for an immediate cease-fire.
