Analysts say Iran not only failed to stop Israel's sophisticated assault, but faces challenges in mounting an effective response against Israel or US bases in the area

More than 10 Israelis were wounded on Sunday, while Iran says 224 people have been killed since the conflict began.

D-Day has arrived for Israel and Iran. After years of covert warfare, cyberattacks, and clandestine operations, Israel has taken the initiative. In the early hours of Friday, June 13, it launched a direct assault on the heart of Iran’s nuclear program.

Advanced espionage techniques made the most of Iranian vulnerabilities, but Israel’s ultimate aims may still be out of reach.

Iran has limited options to respond directly. The danger, however, is that Israel has opened a Pandora’s box: the worst Iranian response might also be the most likely—a decision to withdraw from its arms control commitments and build nuclear weapons in earnest.

Despite not relying on Iran for its oil supplies, petrol and other prices in Australia will rise due to the global impact of the Israel–Iranian war.

Iran announced that it had successfully extracted a vast number of sensitive documents and information related to the Israeli regime, reportedly including details about its nuclear programs and facilities.

Israel's strikes on archfoe on Iran Friday exposed severe weaknesses for Tehran that have hampered its ability to respond militarily, analysts said. Israel said it hit 100 targets including Iranian nuclear and military sites in the attacks,

Tehran’s bruising fight with Israel has left its military weakened and unable to respond in kind to Israeli attacks.

"This confrontation will not end with last night's limited actions and Iran's strikes will continue, and this action will be very painful and regrettable for the aggressors," Fars reported, citing senior military officials.
