Israel's defence minister Israel Katz has warned that the country may soon be forced to take action against Iran to prevent it from becoming a threat. Katz stated that the US and Israel are working together to ensure Iran does not pose a threat to Israel, the US, and the free world.
Tensions between the US and Iran remain high, with the US maintaining a blockade of Iranian ports and Iran warning of 'swift action' if US forces advance further.
The conflict has resulted in a significant human toll, with over 3,500 people killed in strikes, including women and at least 244 children.
Iran's Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei has signalled a hardening stance, declaring that the country will safeguard its 'nuclear and missile capabilities' as a core national asset.
