Israel targeted Iran’s capital early on Friday, carrying out air strikes on the country’s nuclear facilities that also killed several high ranking officials. The attacks raise the potential for a larger war between the two bitter adversaries. Iran has already responded – launching over 100 drones at Israel.

  3. there were early reports of strikes on facilities in Iraq. have those reports been confirmed?

  5. 🇮🇱 BACKED BY 🇺🇸 ARE THE AGGRESSORS… THEY ARE THE BULLIES… THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS PRE-EMPTIVE DEFENSE – THIS IS OFFENSIVE AGGRESSION

  9. Huh. No real navy or air force. Just drones, missles, and terrorists.
    Are the Iranian Republican Guard going to swim to Israel?

  22. Israel never upholds any deal. They have no honour and wonder why no one will deal with them!
    This will cost them and when the US jumps in to defend them it will cost them as well.

  24. This is extremely upsetting but many open eyes saw this coming.

    Get it right with God,
    We all gotta Go eventually, you know….

  29. They’ve become desperate 😂. They now want to drag everyone in a full scale war. Nobody will die for you, not anymore!

  35. Putin instigated the Hamas attack on Israel, via his Iranian friends. He has been assisting Iran with their nuclear ambitions.
    It all comes back to Putin.
    A weak America, under Donald Trump, puts the whole world at risk.
    Very sad 🙁
