Amid escalating Iran‑Israel hostilities, former President Donald Trump has demanded Iran’s “unconditional surrender,” while stating the U.S. will avoid targeting Ayatollah Khamenei “for now.” Trump cited U.S. aerial dominance over Iran and hinted at potential strikes on its nuclear sites. Iranian missiles have begun hitting Israeli airbases, while Israel reportedly targeted Iranian leadership and nuclear infrastructure. Over 600 foreign nationals have evacuated to Azerbaijan, and diplomatic efforts by France and Turkey are urging calm. Cyber warfare is also intensifying, with a significant hack on Iran’s Bank Sepah.
