Israel and Iran exchanged fresh attacks early Saturday, following Tehran's declaration that it won't negotiate its nuclear program under threat. Israel launched attacks on Iranian missile sites after intercepting a missile barrage targeting central Israel, including Tel Aviv. Casualties are reported on both sides, though figures vary. Despite European-led peace talks in Geneva, little progress was made, with Iran expressing a preference for direct talks with the US. President Trump stated he would take time to decide on US involvement. The situation remains tense, with both sides showing little inclination to de-escalate.
