A recent 12-day war between Israel and Iran marked a dramatic escalation in Middle East tensions, with Israel launching surprise strikes on Iranian military and nuclear sites.
While a ceasefire is currently holding, both sides remain on high alert, with Israeli military leaders warning that the campaign against Iran is not over and preparing for potential multi-arena conflicts. The conflict exposed vulnerabilities in Iran's defenses and has led to strategic recalibrations in both countries, as well as among their regional allies. Despite the temporary lull, unresolved nuclear tensions and the risk of renewed hostilities persist, keeping the region on edge.
Analysts warn that any new round of fighting could be even more destructive and unpredictable.
