In a significant escalation of tensions, Iran carried out its first-ever direct attack on Israel, unleashing over 300 explosive drones and missiles on Saturday (April 13). Termed as "Operation Truthful Promise" by Iran, the strikes were reportedly in retaliation to an Israeli attack on the Iranian embassy in Syria earlier in the month. This aggressive move has intensified hostilities between the two nations and raised concerns about further destabilisation in the region.

The international community has expressed deep concern following Iran's unprecedented direct attack on Israeli territory, involving explosive drones and missile strikes. Tehran's aggression comes after an April 1 air raid, widely attributed to Israel, which resulted in the destruction of Iran's consulate in Syria and claimed the lives of 12 individuals, including two high-ranking Iranian generals. Israeli forces reported intercepting the "vast majority" of missiles launched from Iran before they reached Israeli borders, highlighting the intensity of the confrontation. Tensions between Israel and Iran have surged since the conclusion of Israel's six-month conflict in the Gaza Strip.
