Iran Bombing

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Monday that Iran is seeking to develop a "stockpile" of nuclear bombs aimed at destroying Israel, two days after Israel bombed military targets in the Islamic republic.

On October 7, 2023, Hamas, the Palestinian militant group, launched a devastating and unprecedented attack on Israel. The scale and brutality of the assault left more than 1,200 people dead, and hundreds taken hostage.

Gulf states are lobbying Washington to stop Israel from attacking Iran's oil sites because they are concerned their own oil facilities could come under fire from Tehran's proxies if the conflict escalates, three Gulf sources told Reuters.

Iran launched a barrage of 181 ballistic missiles at Israel on Tuesday night, triggering nationwide air raid sirens and forcing nearly 10 million Israelis into bomb shelters.

Iran has fired missiles at Israel and all civilians in the country are in bomb shelters, the Israeli military said on Tuesday.

Iran's ultra-hardliners are demanding the closure of the Strait of Hormuz and the development of a nuclear bomb in response to the recent killing of Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah.

The story of Stuxnet's development and deployment began years earlier. The inception of Stuxnet can be traced back to the early 2000s, during a period of heightened tension between Iran and Western nations over Iran's nuclear ambitions.

Israel's elite intelligence agency Mossad enlisted Iranian security agents to plant explosives in a building in Tehran where armed Palestinian group Hamas's political leader Ismail Haniyeh was staying, The Telegraph reported.

An adviser to Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has reignited concerns over the country's nuclear ambitions, particularly in light of escalating tensions with Israel.

Iran on Wednesday condemned as "illegal" Argentina's request for Interpol to arrest Iran's interior minister over a 1994 bombing attack on a Jewish community centre in Buenos Aires that killed 85 people.

A military base in central Iraq, which was housing army troops and pro-Iranian paramilitaries, was hit with "bombing" overnight amid spiralling tensions between Israel and Iran, reports suggest. The US military has denied any role in the attack.

A "bombing" killed one person and wounded eight others at a military base in central Iraq overnight Friday, an interior ministry source said.

Further stoking tensions, Iran warned on Thursday that if Israel struck Iranian atomic sites during its expected retaliation, Tehran would in turn target Israeli "nuclear facilities".

As its 2015 nuclear deal with major powers has eroded over the years, Iran has expanded and accelerated its nuclear programme, reducing the time it would need to build a nuclear bomb if it chose to, though it denies wanting to.
