In a significant escalation of their longstanding tensions, Israel has intensified its air campaign against Iran. This follows a surprise attack by Israeli forces targeting Tehran's military and nuclear facilities, which prompted US President Donald Trump to issue an evacuation warning to Tehran's residents.
Amid these developments, Trump hastily returned from a G7 summit, yet denied that it was due to ceasefire negotiations. The strike has reportedly set back Iran's nuclear program, with Israel asserting further progression is necessary to prevent nuclear armament.
The conflict, which has involved hundreds of missile and drone strikes between both nations, has raised fears of an all-out war. Calls for diplomatic intervention and a truce have emerged as the international community watches closely.
