Israel Launches Airstrikes on Iran! Iran Announces Withdrawal from Nuclear Talks with the U.S.
Israel launched attacks on Iran today (13th), stating the purpose is to "counter the survival threat posed by Iran to Israel." The military operation named "Lion's Rise" involved 200 aircraft targeting multiple Iranian military and nuclear facilities, killing several high-ranking generals and nuclear scientists, severely damaging Iran's nuclear capabilities.
Following the attacks, the Iranian government announced through state television that it would not participate in the scheduled nuclear negotiations with the U.S. on the 15th, declaring, "In this situation, any negotiations are meaningless." Additionally, Iran condemned the U.S. for conspiring with Israel in the attack, asserting that the only response to such aggressive behavior from Israel is through force.
U.S. President Trump remarked that Israel's military action was "very successful," urging Iran to quickly reach a nuclear deal with the U.S.
