Israel Strikes Iran Nuclear, Military, and Missile Sites

Israel carried out major airstrikes on Iran, targeting nuclear facilities, military installations, and missile factories, including the Natanz enrichment site and locations in Tehran. The attacks killed several high-ranking Iranian commanders and nuclear scientists, prompting Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei to vow severe retaliation and accuse Israel of attacking residential areas. Israel described the operation as a preemptive measure to stop Iran's nuclear ambitions, while Iran's military labeled it blatant aggression and promised a crushing response. Airspace over Israel, Iran, and Iraq was closed, disrupting international flights and elevating fears of broader conflict. The UN nuclear watchdog confirmed that nuclear sites were struck and is monitoring the situation. The international community is closely watching for further escalation.
