Iran threatens to attack nuclear attack: Israel on the highest alert!

In an increasingly tense situation, Iran Israel threatened to attack nuclear facilities. This conflict situation is observed by the international community with great concern. The general director of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) expressed “great concern” with regard to the Iranian uranium enrichment that makes alarming progress. Iran has already enriched 142 kilograms of uranium to 60 percent, which could be sufficient for several atomic bombs. This is in contrast to the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), which has now been overturned since 2018, which limits an enrichment to 3.67 percent. Dewezet

The concerns of Israeli leadership around a possible attack by Tehran were reinforced by the fact that Iran is able to produce armored uranium within a few days. At the same time, it is pointed out that the construction of an atomic explosive head is not yet possible due to a lack of expertise in Iran. Ali Khamenei, the top leader of Iran, also threatened hard punishments after a Hamas leader was killed in Tehran. This underlines the fragile location. NZZ

Current conflicts in the region

The situation in the Gaza Strip remains tense after a ceasefire has been agreed with the Hamas, while Israeli military actions last. Over two million people live there under extremely difficult conditions. The effects of the conflict are profound and influence the geopolitical situation of the entire region. In Lebanon, the clashes of the Hisbollah, which is currently holding back, have built up a threatening setting. Dewezet

The military actions and the current escalation have been the hardest since the short but intensive war between Hamas and Israel in 2021. It is reported that over 2,000 rockets have been fired on Israel, which has re -fired the solidarity of Arab states with the Palestinian civilian population. Even in countries that previously had normalization agreements with Israel, the collaboration is questioned. bpb

Iran and the "axis of resistance"

Iran greeted the aggressive attitude of Hamas in the current conflict, but emphasizes that he was not directly involved in the planning. However, there is clear indications that Iran has supported Hamas financially and militarily and has provided rocket technology for years. The militant groups, which belong to the "axis of resistance", act specifically against Israel and the US presence in the Middle East, while at the same time expressing solidarity with the Palestinians. bpb

The complexity of the current geopolitical situation also takes into account the fact that the Iranian population is increasingly suffering from its own grievances, while the government continues to pursue its military ambitions. A significant part of the population perceives the government's double morality as problematic, since the support of military actors contradicts their own living conditions. NZZ
