The Iran-Israel conflict has escalated to unprecedented levels, marking the fifth consecutive day of airstrikes between the two nations. U.S. President Donald Trump has emphasized the necessity for a definitive solution to the nuclear issue with Iran, proposing to send senior officials for negotiations.

Despite Trump's push for diplomacy, Israel's military operations have intensified, leading to substantial Iranian casualties. In retaliation, Iran has launched a new wave of attacks, escalating tension in the region. Meanwhile, international leaders attending the Group of Seven summit have urged for de-escalation, emphasizing the instability caused by Iran's potential nuclear armament.

As air warfare continues, Iran has reported substantial civilian casualties, while Israeli forces have targeted Iranian military infrastructure. Diplomatic efforts are underway, with several Middle Eastern countries attempting to mediate for a ceasefire. However, previous attempts at dialogue have faltered, casting a shadow over future negotiations.
