🇺🇸📞🇮🇱❗️ — US State Department restricts under strict notice ALL US Government employees and their familiy members in Israel from traveling outside Greater Tel Aviv, Jerusalem and Beer Sheva areas until further notice!

Israel: Due to the increased regional tensions, U.S. government employees and their family members are restricted from travel outside the greater Tel Aviv (including Herzliya, Netanya, and Even Yehuda), Jerusalem, and Be’er Sheva areas until further notice.  Transit between these three areas, including to and from Ben Gurion Airport, is authorized.  Transiting Route 1 to and from Allenby Bridge is also permitted.

The U.S. Embassy reminds U.S. citizens of the continued need for caution and increased personal security awareness – including knowing the location of the nearest shelter in the event of a red alert as security incidents, including mortar, rocket, and missile fire, and unmanned aircraft system (UAS) intrusions, often take place without any warning.  The security environment is complex and can change quickly.

Friends, I just wanna share two things:

1. The Middle East is obviously not part of the Balkans. However, I decided to share some information on it as the current level of tensions right now is as unprecedented as what could be about to happen in the following days. I also would like to begin sharing specially important world news from now in the channel. I think it's enriching.

2. Apologies for not having been very active on Balkan news today. This weekend I'll be travelling so I might be a bit off during the following days. I'll try to post some things though. Thanks for understanding guys.

And overall, have a good night and do something fun this Friday!

#BREAKING | Israel Launches Major Strikes on Iran’s Nuclear and Military Targets

On June 13, 2025, Israel executed a large-scale military operation, dubbed "Operation Rising Lion," targeting Iran’s nuclear facilities, ballistic missile sites, and key military leadership. The preemptive strikes, which began late Thursday, hit critical sites including the Natanz nuclear facility near Isfahan, the Parchin military base near Karaj, and locations in Tehran and Khorramabad. Explosions rocked the Iranian capital.

The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) cited "high-quality intelligence" suggesting Iran was nearing nuclear weapon capability. The operation involved over 200 fighter jets, including F-35 stealth fighters, and killed high-ranking Iranian officials, including Mohammad Bagheri, Iran’s second-highest military commander, Hossein Salami of the Revolutionary Guards, and six nuclear scientists, including Fereydoun Abbasi and Mohammad Mehdi Tehranchi.

The strikes follow stalled U.S.-Iran nuclear talks, with President Trump expressing hope for a diplomatic resolution but warning of potential conflict. The U.S. was informed of the strikes but provided no military support, with Secretary of State Marco Rubio calling the action "unilateral."
