Israel launched a retaliatory attack on Iran, resulting in multiple explosions in Tehran and nearby military bases. The Iranian army reported two soldiers killed in the airstrikes, prompting responses from various countries urging restraint to avoid further escalation in the region.

The United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) highlighted the dire situation in Gaza, where children in need of urgent medical care face challenges due to limited evacuation opportunities. The closure of the Rafah border crossing has significantly reduced the number of children receiving medical attention, raising concerns about the humanitarian crisis in the region.

Amidst the escalating tensions between Israel and Iran, the international community has called for de-escalation and diplomatic efforts to prevent further violence. Saudi Arabia condemned the military targeting of Iran as a violation of sovereignty and international laws, emphasizing the need for maximum restraint to end conflicts in the region.

Iran has resumed flights following the Israeli airstrikes, with the US urging Iran to cease its attacks on Israel to break the cycle of violence. President Joe Biden’s administration has worked with Israeli officials to conduct targeted and proportional responses to the escalating conflict, aiming to de-escalate tensions in the Middle East region.

The Israeli military’s strikes on Iran’s air defenses have given them more freedom to operate in the skies over Iran, signaling a shift in the ongoing conflict between the two countries. As the situation continues to unfold, diplomatic efforts and international cooperation remain crucial in preventing a full-blown regional war in the Middle East.
