The second week of Israel Iran strikes has pushed the region closer to all‑out war. Fighter jets roar above Tehran, Haifa and Beersheba even as diplomats admit that pausing Israel Iran strikes long enough to talk peace is a tall order. Washington, Europe and the United Nations plead for restraint, but Israels Iran strikes keep expanding, pulling allies and civilians into the line of fire.
Israel Iran strikes intensify regional fears
Israel Iran strikes began on 13 June as “pre‑emptive” blows against missile sites and research hubs, the Israeli Air Force says. Since then, the tempo of Israel Iran strikes has grown, hitting launch pads in Khuzestan and radar stations near Isfahan and Mashhad. Iranian agencies report at least four deaths in the south‑west and fresh explosions in the capital.
Trump: Ceasefire will be “very hard to stop”
Landing in New Jersey, U.S. President Donald Trump told reporters it was “very hard” to ask Israel to halt Israel’s Iran strikes while it believes it is winning. He promised a decision on possible U.S. involvement within two weeks and again contradicted his own intelligence chief on Iran’s nuclear work. hindustantimes.com That scepticism feeds Tehran’s claim that negotiations can resume only when Israel’s Iran strikes end.
Europe’s diplomacy limps on as Israel’s Iran strikes continue
Foreign ministers from Germany, France and the UK met Iran’s Abbas Araghchi in Geneva, urging a return to nuclear talks. Yet Trump warned that Europe “won’t be able to help in this one,” and Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar called Iran “not negotiating honestly.” Israel Iran strikes still pounding strategic targets, diplomats concede that progress is minimal.
Civilian toll climbs
UN chief António Guterres warns the conflict could “ignite a fire no one can control.” Iranian missiles have hit Haifa and Beersheba; Israeli bombs have toppled an apartment block that housed a bakery and hairdresser in Tehran. Local agencies count dozens of civilian deaths in just 48 hours, while aid convoys struggle to reach disaster zones.
What next for a region on edge?
Analysts say that unless Israel Iran strikes slow, Tehran may target Gulf oil facilities or close the Strait of Hormuz, jolting global energy markets. Washington hopes its leverage over military aid can moderate Israel Iran strikes, but Israeli commanders insist operations will continue “until Iran cannot rebuild.” The longer Israel Iran strikes last, the harder compromise becomes.
