The conflict between the United States, Iran, and Israel has escalated dramatically. On June 21, 2025, U.S. President Donald Trump announced that the United States carried out a “very successful attack” on three Iranian nuclear sites including Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan. These strikes represent a major escalation as the U.S. joined Israel’s air campaign against Tehran.
Following the attacks, Iran vowed to reserve all options in response, calling the U.S. strikes “outrageous” and warning of “everlasting consequences”. Iran also launched multiple missile and drone strikes targeting Israeli military sites as part of its 20th wave of counterattacks. Amid these tensions, Israel shut down its airspace for security reasons, with airlines avoiding Middle East airspace due to safety concerns.
