For the first time since a ceasefire was established two months ago, Israel and Iran exchanged long-range missile strikes. This exchange of hostilities has raised concerns about the possibility of a full-scale conflict resuming in the region.
Following these events, both nations have indicated a willingness to halt further attacks. Despite this, the missile exchange has left international leaders, including former President Donald Trump and regional mediators, urgently seeking to finalize an agreement to bring an end to the ongoing war with Iran.
