The war in Iran has entered its second week, with airstrikes on Tehran and Iranian missile attacks on Israel. The Israeli army announced that it has destroyed 80% of Iran’s air‑defense systems. U.S. President Donald Trump commented that he would accept nothing less than “Iran’s unconditional surrender,” while conflicting statements continue to obscure the true objectives of the war.
The conflict has expanded beyond Iran’s borders, shaking global financial markets and driving oil prices higher. Israel continues its bombardment of Lebanon, while Iran condemned the military operation and described the killing of the Supreme Leader as an act of assassination.
Reports indicate that more than 1,332 people have been killed in Iran, 123 in Lebanon, and 11 in Israel.
