As the Israel-Iran conflict enters its fifth day, tension is rising across both countries. On Monday night, Iran launched a new round of missile strikes, triggering air raid sirens in central and southern Israel. Residents in Tel Aviv and Haifa took cover as Israel's air defense systems were activated to intercept incoming threats, according to the Israeli military.
Early Tuesday, explosions were heard in the east of Tehran. Iran's air defense network also went on high alert, scrambling to intercept aerial targets crossing into Iranian airspace. This tit-for-tat escalation began after Israel launched air strikes on Iran last Friday.
Young global citizens, tech and business enthusiasts, and changemakers worldwide are tracking these developments closely. Analysts are monitoring market reactions and diplomatic channels to gauge the broader impact on regional stability and global energy prices.
As both sides brace for what comes next, the international community watches and waits. What happens next will shape the future of security in the Middle East.
