**Breaking News: Escalation in Israel-Iran Conflict as Nuclear Threat Looms**

Tensions skyrocket as Israel retaliates against Iran following a series of Iranian missile strikes that injured over 200 people overnight in Israel. This alarming escalation has prompted Israel to issue stark warnings to Iran’s Supreme Leader, signaling a potential military confrontation. As the situation unfolds, former President Trump has announced that he will reveal the extent of U.S. involvement in the conflict within two weeks, raising the stakes significantly.

Experts warn that Iran’s nuclear ambitions are closer to reality than ever. Andrea Stricker, deputy director of the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies, reveals that Iran has amassed enough enriched uranium to produce 22 nuclear weapons and could be just weeks away from developing a crude nuclear device. This urgent situation has left Israel with no choice but to act preemptively, fearing that a nuclear-armed Iran poses an existential threat.

With the International Atomic Energy Agency unable to monitor Iran’s nuclear sites effectively, the world is left to rely on fragmented intelligence reports. Stricker emphasizes that Iran has historically concealed its nuclear activities, making it difficult to ascertain the true extent of its capabilities. The recent strikes by Israel, which have reportedly eliminated key nuclear scientists and facilities, may have set back Iran’s program significantly, but the threat remains.

As the clock ticks down to Trump’s announcement, the international community watches closely. Will the U.S. take decisive action against Iran’s nuclear sites, or will diplomatic efforts prevail? The stakes couldn’t be higher, with fears that any miscalculation could lead to a wider conflict in the region. Stay tuned for further updates as this precarious situation develops.
