Overview

• Trump ordered Israeli jets to reverse course mid-flight on June 23, effectively ending active hostilities and securing the ceasefire.
• The United States joined the conflict on June 20 by striking Fordow, Natanz and Isfahan with massive bunker-busting bombs.
• Leaked US intelligence found that the airstrikes only delayed Iran’s nuclear activities by a few months rather than destroying its capabilities.
• The 12-day war left more than 600 dead and nearly 5,000 injured in Iran and killed 28 people in Israel amid missile barrages and air raids.
• Diplomatic channels have reopened with preliminary US-Iran talks on nuclear limits under a UN framework even as Tehran moves to suspend IAEA cooperation.
