Overview

• Israel’s operation struck at least four nuclear and military sites around Tehran—including Natanz—and killed senior Iranian Revolutionary Guard commanders Hossein Salami and Mohammad Baqeri along with several nuclear scientists.
• Iran launched more than 100 missiles and drones in retaliation, wounding at least 13 people in Tel Aviv and causing damage across central Israel, with two in critical condition.
• The International Atomic Energy Agency warned of possible radioactive releases from the damaged nuclear facilities and is closely monitoring radiation levels at Natanz.
• The United States and European powers have called for restraint and renewed diplomatic engagement even as planned nuclear talks in Oman remain uncertain.
• Military exchanges show no sign of abating, heightening fears of a broader regional conflict that could draw in neighboring states.
