Following coordinated strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities by the United States and Israel, concerns about global repercussions have surfaced. Former Indian diplomat Mahesh Sachdev indicated to ANI that Iran's potential retaliation could trigger further conflict, impacting global stability and India's strategic interests in the oil-rich Middle East.

President Trump underscored the precision of the US operations, asserting that any failure to achieve peace might result in continued military actions. Tensions are heightened as Iran labels the strikes 'savage aggression' and seeks condemnation from the international community for perceived violations of the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).

Meanwhile, the conflict rages with Israeli and Iranian forces exchanging multiple operations. The targeted destruction of prominent uranium enrichment sites adds to the fervor, as Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu praises the strikes for curtailing nuclear threats. With allegations against international bodies like the IAEA, the confrontation marks a critical juncture in Middle Eastern geopolitics.
