Latest Update: Escalating Tensions (June 2025)
As of June 14, 2025, tensions between Iran and Israel remain high, with sporadic military engagements and threats of escalation. While major cities in Iran (Tehran, Isfahan, Shiraz) are not active war zones, the risk of sudden airstrikes, cyber disruptions, and political instability persists.
