Israel’s airstrikes on Iranian military sites, targeting defense facilities near Tehran, have set the Middle East on edge. Condemning the attack, Hamas called it a “violation of sovereignty,” while Turkey warned that Israel’s actions have “brought the region to the brink of greater war.” Iran claims only minor damage and vows a “proportional response,” though no specifics were given. With U.S. support, but a caution against hitting nuclear sites, Israel executed the strikes in “close coordination” with Washington.
As anxieties rise, nations from Saudi Arabia to Egypt have expressed concern, fearing that this escalation could spiral into larger conflicts. Iran’s next move is anticipated, while Israel stands ready, warning any retaliatory act will “come at a heavy price.”
