The latest developments highlight intensifying military operations and emerging diplomatic overtures:
• Bat Yam Attack: Israeli police confirm 6 killed, 7 missing, and 180 injured after hypersonic missile strikes hit residential areas.
• IDF Warning: Israel has issued an evacuation notice to Iranian civilians near weapons production facilities, urging them to stay away indefinitely.
• Prolonged Campaign: Israeli and U.S. officials told Channel 14 that operations against Iran could continue for weeks.
• Iranian Diplomacy: Tehran has turned to Oman and Qatar to facilitate ceasefire talks with the West, while the U.S. maintains pressure over uranium enrichment.
• Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi announced Iran is ready to abandon nuclear weapons development and would halt attacks if Israel ceases aggression.
• Israel’s Defense Minister Katz vowed to “peel the skin off the Iranian snake,” accusing Tehran of holding its citizens hostage to preserve the regime.
• Iranian Parliament’s Security Committee declared it is time to exit the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), a move that would further destabilize regional security.
With both military actions and diplomatic exchanges escalating, the trajectory of the conflict remains dangerously unpredictable.
