Israel Hits 200 Iranian Nuclear Targets, Czech Republic Supports Action

Israel launched a large-scale aerial attack on over 200 targets in Iran, focusing on nuclear facilities and military installations, killing senior commanders and nuclear scientists. The Israeli government, led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, justified the strikes as self-defense against Iran's advancing nuclear program and threats to Israel's existence. Czech politicians, including Foreign Minister Jan Lipavský, publicly supported Israel's actions, describing them as reasonable and necessary responses to Iran's nuclear ambitions and its backing of groups like Hamas and Hezbollah. Germany also affirmed Israel's right to defend itself, while France expressed more cautious support without explicitly endorsing the strikes. The attacks have heightened regional tensions, with Iran retaliating by launching drone attacks on Israel, and have led to disruptions such as suspended flights between Israel and the Czech Republic. These developments underscore the growing international concern over Iran's nuclear program and the escalating conflict in the Middle East.
