The United States and Israel carried out coordinated att+cks on Iran early Saturday, dramatically escalating tensions after weeks of strained diplomacy and the largest American military buildup in the region since the Iraq w@r.<\/p>\n

The str+kes follow last June\u2019s 12-day conflict, when Washington joined Israel\u2019s air campaign against Tehran\u2019s nuclear facilities. Although U.S. President Donald Trump had reportedly considered<\/p>\n

At the same time, Trump dispatched envoys for indirect talks with Tehran, demanding a halt to uranium enrichment and its ballistic missile program. While Trump previously warned Iran over<\/p>\n

the k+lling of anti-regime protesters, recent statements have focused on concerns that Tehran is rebuilding its nuclear capabilities.<\/p>\n

Saturday\u2019s action marks a wider offensive compared to June\u2019s str+kes, which targeted only a few nuclear sites. The move comes despite appeals from several Arab allies urging restraint,<\/p>\n

amid warnings from Iran that any new att+ck would trigger a stronger retaliation.<\/p>\n

In Washington, the str+kes prompted swift criticism from some lawmakers who argued Congress was sidelined. \u201cActs of war unauthorized by Congress,\u201d Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky.,<\/p>\n
