US, Israel launch massive attack on Iran amid nuclear talks
US President Donald Trump confirmed ordering a massive attack on Iran early Saturday, following Israeli strikes on Tehran's University Street and Jomhouri area. The attacks occurred a day after indirect nuclear talks between Iran and the US, mirroring Israel's June 2025 strike during negotiations. Trump claimed the assault prevents Iran from rebuilding its nuclear programme, though Iran insists its programme is peaceful. Iran is expected to retaliate against US interests in the Middle East and Israel. Both nations have closed airspaces and advised citizens to seek shelter. Dozens of US fighter planes and bombers are deployed in the region despite international calls for caution.
