Escalation in the Middle East: Israeli Airstrikes Target Iranian Military Sites



In a significant escalation of tensions in the Middle East, Israel launched a series of pre-dawn airstrikes against military sites in Iran. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed that the strikes targeted facilities used for missile manufacturing and other military infrastructure in Tehran, Khuzestan, and Ilam provinces.

The Iranian military reported limited damage and confirmed the deaths of two soldiers during the attacks. The strikes come amid a period of heightened violence in the region, with both nations exchanging threats and military actions.

The international community is closely monitoring the situation, urging both sides to exercise restraint and seek diplomatic solutions to avoid further escalation.
