As tensions escalate between Israel and Iran, Israel recently carried out multiple air strikes on Iranian military targets. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) justified their actions as a response to what they termed as continuous attacks from Tehran and its allies.
The IDF conducted precise strikes in Iran following reports of explosions in Tehran, underscoring the severity of the situation.
In a statement, IDF spokesperson Daniel Hagari emphasized Israel’s right and obligation to defend itself, highlighting the readiness of their defensive and offensive capabilities.
Solidarity from the US
The United States expressed support for Israel’s actions, framing them as necessary for self-defense in the face of Iranian aggression.
The recent clashes stemmed from Iran’s launch of ballistic missiles towards Israel, triggered by the killing of a key Hamas figure on Iranian soil.
The back-and-forth actions between the two nations further escalated tensions, fueled by perceived violations and retaliatory strikes.
Global reactions and ongoing impact
President Joe Biden and the White House are closely monitoring the situation, showing a keen interest in the developments as they unfold.
While reports downplay the damage caused by the attacks, disruptions such as flight cancellations and strikes in Syria underscore the wider implications of the conflict.
