Iran-Israel Conflict: Airstrikes Continue, Casualties Mount, and Tensions Soar

Amidst the escalating conflict between Israel and Iran, a new wave of airstrikes has hit Iran for the third consecutive day. The attacks have caused significant destruction and a high number of casualties, with at least 406 deaths reported by the Washington-based Human Rights Activists group. In Bat Yam, a seaside town south of Tel Aviv, an apartment building was struck by Iranian missiles, killing six residents. One survivor, speaking anonymously, stated, "They don't want any of this." The Iranian foreign minister has publicly challenged President Trump's claim that the U.S. was uninvolved, stating that a private message is insufficient and demanding a public condemnation of Israel's actions. Emergency crews continue searching through the rubble for missing persons. This conflict underscores the urgent need for diplomatic solutions to prevent further escalation and suffering.
