Israel attacked Tehran, Iran’s capital on Friday that reportedly targeted the country’s nuclear programme and killed at least two top military officers. This military action has raised the potential for an all-out war between the two bitter Middle East adversaries. Israel’s attack codenamed ‘Operation Rising Lion’, comes as tensions have escalated over Iran’s rapidly advancing nuclear programme, which Israel sees as a threat to its existence. In retaliation to the attacks, Iran reportedly launched drones on Israel.
