Tensions between Israel and Iran have escalated dramatically as Israel conducts airstrikes targeting Iranian nuclear sites and military leaders. In retaliation, Iran has launched ballistic missile strikes at Tel Aviv, leading to casualties reported on both sides, including claims by Iran of 78 killed and over 320 wounded due to Israeli attacks. Israel asserts it is intercepting missiles aimed at its territory and aims to dismantle Iran’s nuclear ambitions. Analysts discuss the implications of this conflict, with fears that it could widen and involve other nations, while world leaders call for urgent diplomatic engagement to prevent further violence.
