Israel carried out airstrikes on nuclear and industrial sites in Iran, including a uranium-related facility near Yazd, escalating the ongoing conflict.

Abbas Araghchi and other Iranian officials confirmed the attacks but reported no radiation leaks, while warning of severe retaliation.

The strikes are part of a broader campaign targeting infrastructure, with significant casualties reported and damage to cultural and industrial sites.

Leaders such as Abbas Araghchi and Israel Katz signaled further escalation, as both sides harden their positions, Al-Jazeera has reported.

Despite ongoing diplomatic efforts involving countries like Pakistan and Turkey, prospects for a ceasefire remain uncertain.
