Iran-US-Israel Tensions Escalate
Israel launches another attack on Fordow nuclear. The Iran-Israel conflict has entered its 11th day, with continued strikes from both sides, most recently, an alleged Israeli attack on a major military complex in Iran.
Iran has vowed retaliation against the U.S. for its airstrikes on nuclear sites and condemned both the U.S. and Israel at a UN Security Council meeting. President Trump claimed the bombings “obliterated” key facilities, hinting at a possible regime change, though the full extent of damage is still being evaluated.
Trump speculates about ‘regime change’ in Iran as Tehran vows ‘decisive response’ to US attack. Iran’s foreign minister is in Moscow for talks with President Putin on shared threats, as global leaders, including the UK, urge Tehran to avoid escalation.
Meanwhile, Israel launched intense overnight strikes on Iranian military sites and renewed attacks near Tehran. The U.S. has also asked China to urge Iran not to block the vital Strait of Hormuz.
