War Alert: Israel launches massive airstrikes on the Iranian capital’s military sites

The ongoing conflict involving Iran, Israel, and the United States has reached a dangerous new phase on Day 24. Iran launched the 75th wave of its “Operation True Promise 4,” targeting US and Israeli positions with missiles and drones, while also releasing videos showcasing its military strength. Despite claims from the US and Israel that Iran’s capabilities have weakened, Tehran displayed large stockpiles of weapons, signaling continued resistance. Tensions have sharply escalated around the Strait of Hormuz. US President Donald Trump issued a 48-hour ultimatum demanding its reopening, threatening strikes on Iran’s power plants. In response, Iran warned it would shut the Strait completely and target Israeli energy facilities, IT infrastructure, and US-linked companies if attacked. Meanwhile, US-Israel strikes hit Iran’s Bushehr region, including key military and nuclear-linked sites. Iran claims to have shot down drones and continues retaliatory attacks across the region. The crisis has disrupted global oil supply routes, pushing crude prices above $114 per barrel and triggering sharp declines in markets like the BSE Sensex, raising fears of inflation and wider economic instability.
