Iran Mulls Retaliation After U.S. and Israeli Air Strikes on Nuclear Facilities. On June 23, 2025, Iran announced it is considering responses after the United States and Israel conducted coordinated air and missile strikes on its nuclear sites—including the buried Fordow facility—using bunker-busters and Tomahawk missiles. President Trump hailed the operation as the most significant Western military action against Iran since 1979, warning Tehran to "make peace" or face further attacks. Iran retaliated by launching missiles at Israel, causing civilian casualties in Tel Aviv, but has yet to target U.S. bases or disrupt oil tankers in the Strait of Hormuz—though parliament approved a closure plan. Global oil prices spiked to five-month highs, prompting airlines to reroute flights, while the UN Security Council met amid calls from Russia and China urging restraint. Iran's foreign minister is set to meet with President Putin and has declared diplomacy is off the table until Tehran strikes back.
