Aakhir Tak – In Depth:

The latest conflict between Israel and Iran has intensified the threat of a large-scale war in the Middle East. Israel carried out airstrikes on Iran under “Operation Days of Repentance” in response to what it called “continuous attacks” by Iran. The strikes reportedly focused on military targets, including Iran’s missile manufacturing facilities. Iran claimed its defense system intercepted the strikes but confirmed limited damage in the western and southwestern regions.

According to Iranian military sources, two soldiers lost their lives in the attacks. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu and Defense Minister Yoav Gallant were present at military headquarters during the operation. Israel stated it is ready to take further actions if Iran initiates “new provocations.” Following the strikes, Iran has warned of a “proportional response,” marking a heightened period of volatility in the region. Both countries have closed their airspace to civilian flights as a security measure.

The United States was informed of the planned strikes but did not participate, with President Joe Biden closely monitoring developments. While Israeli forces avoided targeting Iran’s oil and nuclear facilities, the strike has prompted Iran to consider strong retaliatory actions.
