Tehran accused Israel of trying to escalate the conflict to the Persian Gulf after an attack on the world's largest gas field shared with Qatar, sparking deadly missile exchanges. Israel's air offensive targeted Iran's military and nuclear sites, leading to a suspension of gas production at the South Pars field. The retaliatory missile barrages resulted in casualties in both countries.

Following the attacks, Germany, France, and the UK offered talks over Iran's nuclear program, while the US distanced itself from the strikes. Iran's Foreign Minister emphasized self-defense and condemned Israel's actions. The situation remains tense as both sides exchange threats and warnings.

Iran's retaliatory attacks have caused significant damage and casualties in Israel, while Iran also reported casualties and disruptions in its oil and gas facilities. The conflict has raised concerns about regional stability and potential involvement of other countries.
