As tensions between Iran and Israel escalate into a second week of hostilities, global observers are turning to live coverage for real-time insights into one of Asia's most volatile flashpoints. The conflict, which began on June 13, has reportedly claimed over 430 lives in Iran alone, with 3,500 wounded, according to Hossein Kermanpour of the Iranian Health Ministry.
Stalled Diplomacy and Nuclear Concerns
Iran reiterated on Friday that it will not engage in discussions about its nuclear program while under Israeli attacks. This stance complicates efforts by European mediators to revive negotiations and raises questions about potential U.S. involvement. Analysts suggest the impasse could reshape energy markets and regional security dynamics.
The conflict's economic ramifications are being closely monitored by investors, with oil prices fluctuating amid concerns about Strait of Hormuz security. Travel advisories for the region remain active as cultural landmarks face potential risks.
