Israel is reportedly unlikely to target Iran’s nuclear sites, focusing instead on military bases and leadership targets following Tehran's ballistic missile attack. The missile barrage, which saw nearly 200 missiles hit Israeli locations, came in retaliation for Israel's assassination of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah. Former Israeli PM Naftali Bennett has urged Israel to attack Iran’s nuclear program, warning of a potential nuclear disaster if the regime is not stopped. Meanwhile, Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi declared that Tehran is "not afraid of war" and will firmly respond to any Israeli aggression. Tensions in the region continue to escalate.
