Israel has carried out air strikes on Iran's nuclear installations. There have been reports of explosions in many places including Tehran. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have confirmed the attack and said that it has been done to disable Iran's nuclear program. After the attack, Iran has closed its airspace and imposed an emergency in the country. The US has advocated a diplomatic solution to the matter. However, this incident can increase tensions in the Middle East and pose a major threat to regional security. Iran had warned Israel that any attack would be responded to strongly.
However, the effect of this attack on Iran is also being seen on oil prices. If media reports are to be believed, oil prices have risen by about 5% after the attack. Let us tell you that this attack has happened at a time when concern is growing all over the world about Iran's rapidly growing nuclear program. On the one hand, Israel has been saying for a long time that it will not let Iran make nuclear weapons. At the same time, Iran claims that it has no such intention, but it has the capability.
Regarding this attack, Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu emphasized on Operation Rising Lion. He has announced that the country has started a military operation named Operation Rising Lion. He says that this operation has been started to eliminate the threat coming from Iran, which remains a serious challenge to Israel's existence.
Netanyahu said that Israel had launched a short-range military operation shortly before, aimed at pushing back the Iranian threat. Netanyahu stressed that this operation would continue until this threat was completely eliminated.
It is worth noting that earlier the International Atomic Energy Agency had reprimanded Iran for not cooperating for the first time in 20 years. In response, Iran announced that it would start the third uranium enrichment center in the country and install new generation centrifuge machines.
US Foreign Minister Marco Rubio's statement has come out on this attack by Israel. He said that the attack that Israel has done on Iran was its unilateral decision and America has no role in it. He said that our first priority is the safety of American soldiers deployed in the region. Israel had already told us that this action is necessary for its self-defense.
Rubio said President Donald Trump and his administration have taken all necessary steps to protect American forces and are in constant touch with regional allies. He warned Iran, saying, "We want to make it clear that Iran should not target American interests or our soldiers".
