BAKU, Azerbaijan, February 28. The Nur Inform
news agency, known for its close ties to Iran's Supreme National
Security Council, reported that dozens of missiles had been
launched from Iran toward Israel, Trend reports.
According to information, these are ballistic missiles.
Meanwhile, as a result of the Israeli and U.S. attack on Iran,
there have also been reports that Iran is preparing a retaliatory
strike.
Following the second round of nuclear talks between Washington
and Tehran on February 17, which ended without progress, the U.S.
increased its presence in areas near Iran, deploying over 150
aircraft to bases in Europe and the Middle East.
The escalation follows
the 3rd round of nuclear talks between Iran and the United States
in Geneva on February 26. Held under the administration of U.S.
President Donald Trump, the negotiations were seen as a last
opportunity for a diplomatic resolution. However, no agreements
were reached, as Tehran refused to halt uranium enrichment,
dismantle its nuclear facilities, or accept indefinite restrictions
on its nuclear program. Israel launched its airstrikes shortly
afterward, with Katz emphasizing that the operations were
preemptive.
