War Escalation: Middle East War Intensifies on Day 15 with Fresh Missile and Drone Attacks

The large-scale war in the Middle East continues to intensify as attacks and counterattacks increase across the region. On the 15th day of the conflict, several major developments have been reported. Russia’s President Vladimir Putin is expected to meet Iran’s newly appointed Supreme Leader Mustafa Khamenei. Meanwhile, the United States has announced a reward of $10 million for information about his whereabouts. US President Donald Trump claimed that American forces destroyed Iranian military bases on Kharg Island, a strategic oil and military hub. Heavy strikes were also reported at Shiraz International Airport and in the city of Isfahan, causing large-scale destruction. The United States has reportedly deployed Northrop Grumman B-2 Spirit bombers in the war, raising fears of even larger strikes. In response, Iran launched the 46th and later the 48th wave of missile and drone attacks against Israel. A missile reportedly hit a school in Rishon LeZion, while another strike targeted Holon in central Israel. The conflict has also spread to the Gulf region. Iran allegedly attacked a US oil tanker in Sharjah, setting it ablaze. Drone strikes were also reported in Baghdad, where the United States Embassy Baghdad was targeted. Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and Hezbollah are reportedly coordinating missile and drone attacks on Israeli cities. Analysts warn that the war is escalating rapidly and could expand further across the Middle East.
