Escalating military exchanges between Israel, Iran, and the United States

On June 7, 2026, the Israeli air force struck military installations and Revolutionary Guard infrastructure in western and central Iran, including sites in Tehran, Tabriz, and Isfahan, in response to Iranian missile attacks. Concurrently, a ballistic missile launched from Yemen toward Israel was intercepted without casualties. In the Persian Gulf, U.S. Central Command reported shooting down several Iranian drones threatening maritime traffic near the Strait of Hormuz and hitting coastal radar sites in Iran. Iran retaliated by firing missiles at U.S. military facilities in Kuwait and Bahrain, though the U.S. military confirmed these were intercepted. U.S. President Donald Trump has called for a de-escalation, urging Benjamin Netanyahu to refrain from further retaliation to protect ongoing indirect negotiations for a peace deal. Trump stated that he will not unfreeze Iranian assets or lift sanctions until a formal agreement is reached. While asserting his role as the primary decision-maker, Trump noted that he and the Iranian leadership were previously close to a deal before recent tensions.
