As Israel and Iran exchange fire for a third day, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is reportedly aiming for regime change in Tehran. Israeli strikes have killed at least 80 and destroyed key Iranian infrastructure, including military and nuclear sites. Iran’s response—missile attacks—has left 13 dead. Israel’s offensive has eliminated top Iranian generals, weakened proxies like Hamas and Hezbollah, and destabilized Syria. Netanyahu now hopes internal unrest will topple Ayatollah Khamenei.
