Timeline of Explosive Tensions Between Tel Aviv and Tehran
- On June 13, 2025, Israel launched airstrikes targeting numerous Iranian nuclear and military sites, including missile factories and commanders.
- This strike followed escalating tensions marked by a major Iranian missile and drone attack on Israel in April 2024 and prior Israeli retaliations.
- The attacks on June 13 triggered full activation of Iran's air defenses, multiple explosions reported in Tehran, and Israel declared a state of emergency bracing for retaliation.
- Reports state that Iran claimed 78 deaths from earlier Israeli strikes, while Israel's military spokesperson said they intercepted most incoming missiles using the Arrow system and a military facility suffered some damage.
- The strikes have intensified regional instability, causing European governments to update travel advisories, airlines to suspend flights over Iranian and Israeli airspace, and markets to decline amid fears of broader conflict.
