Iran Launches Around 100 Drones Toward Israel in Retaliation for Strikes on Nuclear Sites, IDF Says
- On June 13, 2025, Israel conducted multiple airstrikes targeting more than 100 locations in Iran, including nuclear and military sites, carrying out the operation from within its own airspace.
- The strikes responded to long-standing Israeli concerns over Iran's nuclear program, with escalating regional tensions and weeks of warnings amid ongoing U.S. diplomatic efforts to prevent conflict.
- In retaliation, early Friday morning Iran launched approximately 100 drones toward Israeli territory, which Israel intercepted using activated defense systems amid a declared state of emergency.
- Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu declared that Israel targeted a central part of Iran's uranium enrichment efforts, stressing the nation's survival depends on taking action and pledging to continue such operations. In response, Iran's Supreme Leader Khamenei denounced the strike, warning that Israel is leading itself toward severe consequences.
- The U.S. government denied involvement in the strikes, warned against attacks on its personnel, and began shifting military resources; the conflict raised risks of wider escalation and prompted global calls for deescalation.
