Israel Attacks on Iran as sound of explosions reported around Tehran

Israel launched a series of airstrikes on Iran, targeting military sites in retaliation for Iran’s earlier missile attacks on Israel. The airstrikes risk escalating tensions between the two countries, which are already involved in conflicts across the Middle East. Israel stated that it was not targeting nuclear or oil facilities. The attack resulted in explosions in Tehran, with no immediate information on damage or casualties. The U.S. was briefed on the strikes, and the situation remains tense as both countries have been engaged in a shadow war for years. Iran closed its airspace, and commercial airlines avoided the region.
