Following US attacks on Iranian nuclear facilities, Iran launched its 20th wave of missile and drone strikes against Israeli military targets, prompting retaliatory Israeli offensives. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi stated Iran reserves all options to defend itself, citing the US actions as 'outrageous' and 'criminal.' The escalating conflict, marked by mutual attacks since Israel's surprise attack last week, has significantly heightened geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. While US President Trump declared the strikes a success, the IAEA reported no radiation leaks at the targeted sites.
