Overview

  • The Israeli Air Force has struck over 400 targets across Iran—neutralizing air defenses, hitting underground missile launchers, nuclear sites and the South Pars gas field
  • Iran responded with waves of ballistic missiles and drones aimed at central Israel, causing at least three civilian deaths and more than 170 injuries despite interceptions by Israeli and US defenses
  • Oman confirmed that the sixth round of indirect US-Iran nuclear negotiations due Sunday has been canceled after Tehran deemed talks unjustifiable amid ongoing strikes
  • Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu pledged to intensify operations, warning that initial assaults represent only the beginning of Israel’s campaign against regime targets
  • Global leaders have called for restraint as oil prices rose on fears of wider disruption to Gulf exports and the conflict’s potential to engulf the region
