Israel Strikes Iranian Defense Systems in Retaliation for Attack, Tensions with U.S. Rise Over Sanctions

Israel's recent military response targeted Iran's defense infrastructure, while simultaneously facing potential U.S. sanctions against an Israeli military unit for human rights violations.

• Israel conducted a targeted strike on Iranian defense systems around Natanz, following an Iranian attack involving UAVs and missiles.
• The U.S. is considering sanctions on the Israeli military unit Netzah Yehuda, accused of human rights abuses in the West Bank.
• Israeli leaders, including Netanyahu, have strongly opposed the U.S. sanctions, citing the ongoing war in Gaza and the unit's role in national defense.
• Tensions in the region remain high with unresolved issues in Gaza, where Israeli hostages are held, and escalating violence in the West Bank.
• The potential U.S. sanctions relate to the 1997 Leahy Law, which prohibits aid to foreign military units involved in human rights violations.
