Israel Strikes Iran’s Air Defense Sites Following New Iranian Missile Salvos

Planned U.S.-Iran nuclear negotiations in Oman risk collapse following the latest exchanges that have heightened fears of a broader regional war.

Overview

  • Israeli Defense Forces bombarded Iranian air defense sites and missile launchers near Tehran early June 14 in response to Iran’s missile strikes on Israeli territory.
  • Iran launched roughly 150 ballistic missiles in three overnight waves, most of which were intercepted but still caused damage and civilian casualties around Tel Aviv.
  • Iranian state media reported at least 78 dead and over 320 injured, while Israeli authorities confirmed three civilian fatalities and dozens of injuries.
  • The United States helped Israel intercept incoming missiles and UN and EU officials have urged urgent de-escalation to avert a wider Middle East conflict.
  • Scheduled indirect nuclear talks in Oman on Sunday now face uncertainty as Tehran’s participation remains unclear.
