Israel-Iran Conflict Escalates, Nuclear Talks Collapsed

Israel escalated its conflict with Iran by launching strikes on energy and nuclear facilities in Tehran and other Iranian cities, prompting Iran to retaliate with missile attacks on Israeli cities that caused casualties. This escalation has led to increased regional instability and has shifted Israel's military focus from Gaza to reinforcing borders against Iran-backed militias. The humanitarian crisis in Gaza has worsened amid a communications blackout and declining international attention. Diplomatic efforts have stalled, and nuclear negotiations between Iran and the US were canceled in the wake of the latest violence, despite Türkiye's calls for renewed dialogue. Iranian officials maintain their commitment to a peaceful nuclear program and accuse Israel of undermining prospects for diplomacy. The situation remains volatile, with major regional and global implications.
