Israel has issued an evacuation warning to residents near Iran’s Arak nuclear reactor, escalating tensions between the two nations. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) delivered the message in Farsi via X, formerly known as Twitter, on Thursday.
This warning comes amid a week-long exchange of fire between Israel and Iran. Since June 13, Israel has conducted a series of strikes targeting Iran’s military and nuclear facilities. The ongoing conflict has raised concerns about regional stability and the potential for broader escalation.
The IDF’s message urged residents in the vicinity of the Arak reactor to leave the area immediately, citing potential security risks. While details of the specific threats were not disclosed, the evacuation notice underscores the severity of the situation.
The international community has called for restraint from both sides to prevent further escalation. Observers are closely monitoring the developments, fearing that continued hostilities could have significant implications for the Middle East.
