Iran–USA–Israel: Escalation in the Middle East – what comes after the bombs? | DW News

Описание: The situation in the Middle East is escalating rapidly.
After several days of warfare, U.S. President Trump warns the regime in Tehran that “the big wave of attacks is yet to come.” The United States and Israel are launching joint airstrikes against Iranian targets, citing Iran’s missile and nuclear program and their right to self-defense.

Iran retaliates with strikes on Israel and on Gulf states, where key U.S. military bases are located. At the same time, the Iran backed Hezbollah opens a second front along Israel’s northern border.

Where is this war heading? Is there an exit strategy?
What risks does this escalation pose for Europe and the West?
