The escalation follows a series of military strikes, increased rhetoric, and alleged support for militant activities targeting Israel and other regional adversaries, raising fears of a broader conflict. Experts warn that Iran's strategic moves aim to bolster its influence and deter Western intervention, while regional leaders scramble to respond. The situation remains volatile, with international calls for de-escalation, but the prospects for peace appear increasingly uncertain as hostilities threaten to spiral further.
