A Syrian analyst argues that there are a worryingly large number of ways the Iran-Israel war can become a regional conflagration, with serious global economic implications
Israel and Iran have been sworn enemies for years. Just last Oct, Iran rained 180 missiles on Israel in one evening, but their ongoing fight, now in its eighth day, is different. It’s a direct military confrontation, minus the proxies. Both sides have hit residential areas as well as military sites. An Iranian missile barrage hit an Israeli hospital yesterday, while Israeli aircraft are targeting Iran’s nuclear facilities and missile launchers.
