CNBC Daily Open: Uncertainty Around Israel-Iran Conflict Put Investors on Edge
- On June 18, 2025, Iran launched ballistic missiles at Tel Aviv, causing partial building collapses and injuring about 40 people amid an intensifying conflict.
- The missile strikes followed Israeli airstrikes last Friday targeting evacuated Iranian military and nuclear sites, escalating hostilities between Israel and Iran.
- Both sides conducted drone attacks and espionage arrests, with Israel striking the inactive Arak nuclear reactor to prevent its restoration.

- The conflict has led to at least 223 arrests in Iran for collaboration with Israel, international calls for restraint, and market jitters amid rising oil prices and weakened investor sentiment.
