On June 13, 2025, Israel launched airstrikes targeting Iran’s nuclear and military sites, resulting in the deaths of senior Iranian military officials and nuclear scientists. The attacks have heightened concerns about regional instability, with Iran vowing a harsh response and Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei warning Israel to “expect severe punishment”.
Former U.S. President Donald Trump has urged Iran to negotiate, cautioning that failure to do so could lead to more severe attacks. The situation remains volatile, with both nations preparing for potential further escalation.
