Recent attacks have seen Israel targeting Iranian ballistic missile stockpiles and launchers, reportedly destroying about one-third of them. Iran has struck Israeli cities such as Haifa and Tel Aviv, hitting the Bazan Oil Refinery in Haifa (killing three people and damaging pipelines), and causing damage to buildings, cars, and infrastructure in Tel Aviv and Ramat Gan.
According to recent estimates, the conflict has resulted in at least 24 Israeli deaths and over 500 injuries. Iranian sources claim 224 civilians killed in Israel's airstrikes, while Israel disputes this figure.
Israeli air defenses have intercepted several Iranian drones and missiles, particularly those entering Israeli territory. Despite Iran's launch of over 545 drones, few have managed to impact Israeli soil, with most being intercepted or failing to reach their targets[1].
International leaders have expressed concern and called for restraint and de-escalation, warning of the risk of a broader regional war. There have been specific calls for negotiations to prevent further escalation.
Critical infrastructure such as the Bazan Oil Refinery in Haifa was damaged, causing all oil refinery facilities to shut down. Additionally, power plants, residential buildings, and government complexes have sustained significant damage.
