💨 Abstract

Iran and Israel engaged in a missile attack on Wednesday, with Iran stating that its actions were in retaliation for Israeli killings of militant leaders and aggression against Iran-backed armed movements in Lebanon and Gaza. Israel activated air defences, and most missiles were intercepted. Israel vowed to retaliate, and Iran threatened further retaliation if provoked. The United Nations Security Council and European Union called for an immediate ceasefire.
