US and Israeli Strikes Continue Against Iran
The United States and Israel have launched another day of airstrikes against Iran, with Washington warning of a “dramatic surge” in operations. The US has not secured active participation from any of its main allies in the conflict.
According to reports, the strikes are ongoing, with no further details available at this time. The situation remains fluid, and further developments are expected.
US President Donald Trump has expressed frustration with European leaders regarding the ongoing war effort. Many European countries have expressed concerns that the conflict is a breach of international law. China and Russia also share these views.
The US has not sought the active participation of its main allies in the conflict thus far. This marks a departure from previous conflicts, such as Iraq and Afghanistan, where multiple nations were involved.
The Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft’s Anatol Lieven, Director of the Eurasia Programme, and Theresa Fallon, Director of the Centre for Russia, Europe, Asia Studies at the Chicago Council on Global Affairs, will discuss the implications of the conflict. Additionally, General Dominique Trinquand, former head of the French military mission to the UN and NATO, will share his insights.
The situation is being closely monitored by global players, with further developments expected in the coming days.
