Following Iran’s missile and drone attacks on Israel, the Israeli military has launched retaliatory strikes targeting Iran’s military infrastructure in the country’s southwest. Iran’s Young Journalists Club reported that air defense systems were activated in the southern city of Bushehr, signaling incoming Israeli attacks. According to Al Jazeera, the Israeli military confirmed ongoing operations targeting Iranian military assets in the region. Earlier, Iran had launched a wave of missiles at Israel, injuring at least 23 people, several of whom are in critical condition. One woman was reportedly killed in the attack. The escalating conflict marks a significant rise in hostilities between the two nations and has drawn international concern over further destabilization in the region.
