Tensions between Israel and Iran are rising fast after Iran struck the US embassy in Israel, just days after Donald Trump warned Tehran not to push its luck.
Last week, Israel bombed Iran’s nuclear and military sites, sparking a wave of retaliation. Iran fired missiles back, causing “minor damage” to the US embassy in Israel, according to Ambassador Mike Huckabee. He confirmed no injuries but said the embassy would stay closed for safety.
Trump has shown strong support for Israel and blasted Iran on Truth Social: “If we are attacked in any way, shape or form by Iran, the full strength and might of the U.S. Armed Forces will come down on you at levels never seen before.”
With the USS Nimitz now heading to the region, fears of more violence are growing. So far, at least 78 people in Iran and 10 in Israel have died, with more casualties expected. Trump insists a deal can end this conflict but warned he’s ready to “unleash hell” if America is threatened.
