Today, there has been a major escalation of war between Israel, the United States of America and Iran. Israel and the United States have launched a series of military attacks against Iranian military targets. These attacks are largely made by rockets and aircraft fighters towards military bases and strategic targets in Iran. The goal of Israel and the US was to weaken Iran's military capacities and prevent threats stemming from Iranian missile and military programmes.

In Tehran and other cities of Iran, powerful explosions have been heard and there has been material damage in populated areas. There are reports of casualties and casualties, including civilians.

Following these attacks, Iran has responded immediately by launching missile counterattacks and fearing military bases where American forces are located and, in some cases, fire against Israel. This has caused explosions and alarms in the region, especially in places where American troops station.

The situation is very tense and has led to fears for a wider regional conflict, as missiles and shocks are affecting other Middle Eastern countries as well. /Periscopi
