The conflict between Iran and Israel has escalated as Iran f ired several ballistic missiles towards Israel which steps up the conflict a notch. The Iranian government explained the missile attack as a proportionate response to what it described as “terrorist acts” by Israel. For its part, Iran’s mission in the United Nations tweeted it referring to the attack as legal or a legitimate response to the actions of the Israelis. The statement also threatened an extreme counterattack in case of an Israeli reaction, urging other regional states and Israel’s allies to rethink their positions.
This missile strike has occurred at the time when the relations between the two countries remain strained and intensively colored with rather Mutually hostile rhetoric. The attack has also led to worries of a more extensive war in the region, making international onlookers sit up and worry that a conflict could happen between regional and world powers.
So far, Israel is yet to respond but a retaliation is expected bearing in mind the severe warning given by Tehran. Experts are concerned that this event may escalate troubles, provoking large-scale conflict in the region which is quite unstable at the present stage.
The global people is observing carefully, as there is possibility of large scale warfare. In the coming days leading to the event, negotiation over the event, negotiation over the conflict is expected to receive diplomatic intervention, however the probability of diplomatic solution to the escalating hostility is immerging doubtful. The whole world now focus their attention on Israel again as to what they will do that can either agitating or cooling the already tension-saturated region.
