Israel just launched pre-emptive airstrikes on Iran - direct hits on nuclear facilities and long-range missile sites in Tehran.
Why? Intel says Iran could be just months away from building a nuke. With U.S.-Iran negotiations falling apart and uranium enrichment ramping up, Israel didn’t wait to find out.
Israeli officials claim there is a “very high chance” that the entire Iranian general staff and several senior Iranian nuclear scientists were killed in Israeli strikes tonight (as per CNN) so let’s take this with a grain of salt
Iran’s Defense Minister is already vowing “devastating” retaliation with claims of fighter jets already off the ground.
This follows a year of rising tensions: Iran fired missiles at Israel twice in the past 12 months… and now the gloves are off.
USA Senators were quick to back Israel (no surprise there) saying:
“Our commitment to Israel must be absolute and I fully support this attack. Keep wiping out Iranian leadership and the nuclear personnel. We must provide whatever is necessary—military, intelligence, weaponry—to fully back Israel in striking Iran.”
This could spiral into a full-blown war.
