Tensions between Iran and Israel have escalated following Israel’s June 13 strike on Iranian nuclear and military sites. Iran responded with missile attacks, one of which caused “minor damage” to the U.S. embassy in Israel, though no injuries were reported. U.S. Ambassador Mike Huckabee stated, “Some minor damage from concussions of Iranian missile hits… but no injuries.”
Donald Trump voiced strong support for Israel and warned Iran against further retaliation. “The U.S. had nothing to do with the attack on Iran,” Trump wrote, “If we are attacked… the full strength and might of the U.S. Armed Forces will come down on you at levels never seen before.”
Trump also criticized Iran for missing opportunities to make a nuclear deal with the P5+1 nations, saying: “I gave Iran chance after chance… but they just couldn’t get it done.”
Meanwhile, Caitlyn Jenner was caught in the chaos while visiting Tel Aviv for Pride celebrations. “We are back in the shelters in Tel Aviv,” she posted, sharing a photo from the shelter with wine in hand. “Please pray. I’m holding up okay.”
Iran reports 78 deaths, while Israel confirmed 10 fatalities. Numbers are expected to rise as the situation unfolds.
