Israel has intensified its military operations by striking the Karun Mahshahr Petrochemical Company in Iran's Khuzestan Province, marking a significant escalation in the ongoing conflict. The Israeli military confirmed these strikes, stating that several targets at the petrochemical complex were hit, prompting evacuations in the area. In retaliation, Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) launched Operation Victory, targeting Israeli air bases, specifically Nevatim and Tel Nof, in response to Israeli missile attacks on Iranian radar sites. This renewed exchange of fire comes after a period of fragile ceasefire, with both nations disregarding U.S. President Donald Trump's calls for restraint. Trump emphasized that these strikes would not impact ongoing peace negotiations with Iran, asserting his control over the diplomatic process. Iranian officials have warned that any peace deal with the U.S. must include a ceasefire across all fronts, including Lebanon and Gaza. As Israel continues its military operations against Hezbollah, tensions remain high, with both sides preparing for potential further escalations.
