Fresh explosions rocked Tehran on Friday as the Israel-Iran war entered its second week. Iran activated air defences after Israeli missile strikes reportedly hit central Tehran. In retaliation, Iran launched missiles targeting Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, Haifa, and Beersheba. Two Israelis were injured by shrapnel, including a 16-year-old boy in serious condition. As tensions escalate, European leaders urged diplomatic dialogue, with Germany, France, and the UK pushing for continued nuclear talks. Turkish President Erdogan warned the conflict was nearing a “point of no return,” saying, “This madness must end,” as fears of broader regional destabilisation grow. (PC: News18)
