The tit-for-tat air strikes between the Israeli Defence Forces and the Iranian Army have escalated to unprecedented levels, moving from a proxy war to direct confrontation in their respective territories.
Despite calls for moderation from G7 leaders, the conflict shows no signs of abating. Iran has been warned of facing new sanctions, while Israel remains on high alert.
In a recent incident, an Israeli drone reportedly targeted a major air base and nuclear site near the central city of Isfahan in Iran. Iranian troops retaliated by firing air defences, resulting in no damage to the base.
This retaliation came shortly after Tehran’s attack on Israel, where Iranian drones, cruise missiles, and ballistic missiles were employed. Several countries have expressed concerns over Iran potentially obtaining nuclear weapons, further complicating the situation.
Amidst the escalating tensions, both Israel and Iran have deployed anti-missile systems and air defence shields to protect their strategic assets in the event of a significant military attack.
Despite international efforts to urge restraint and diplomacy, the conflict between Israel and Iran continues to intensify, raising fears of further destabilization in the region.
