The conflict between Iran and Israel has entered its seventh day with no signs of slowing down. On Thursday, Israel’s military announced that approximately 20 of its fighter jets conducted a series of “intelligence-driven operations” in western Iran.
According to Israeli officials, the airstrikes targeted surface-to-surface missile sites and Iranian military personnel. Israel also reported that it had struck a nuclear reactor near Arak and a site in the Natanz area, which it described as a nuclear weapons development facility.
Iran’s nuclear infrastructure includes a partially built heavy-water research reactor, formerly known as Arak and now referred to as Khondab. The reactor has been a point of contention in international negotiations over Iran’s nuclear program.
As tensions escalate, both nations are on high alert, and the international community watches with growing concern. The impact of the conflict is being felt across the region, with fears of broader destabilization.
The eyes of the world are on the Middle East as this longstanding conflict reaches a critical point, with potential implications for global peace and security.
