The situation in the Middle East remains tense, with ongoing conflict particularly between Israel and Iran. Recently, Iran launched a ballistic missile attack on Israel, after which Israel vowed to retaliate. Following through, Israel conducted a major air strike on Saturday morning, targeting Tehran and surrounding military sites. Over 100 Israeli fighter jets, including F-35s, were used in the operation from a distance of 2,000 kilometers.
Despite the scale of the attack, Israel avoided targeting Iran’s nuclear and oil facilities, focusing on military areas instead. An Israeli military official stated that they are only targeting potential threats. Meanwhile, Iran’s state news agency reported sounds of shelling in central Tehran, with explosions near the headquarters of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards.
The effects of the attack have also been felt in Iraq, Syria, and Lebanon, where explosions were reportedly heard. The United States acknowledged being informed of Israel’s attack on Iran and is closely monitoring the situation. As a precautionary measure, Israel has closed its airspace.
