From plans to destroy Iran’s nuclear programme to talks of a regime change, a lot has happened in the Israel-Iran conflict since June 13.
US President Donald Trump, who has been involved in the verbal attack on Iran since day one, officially joined the war with Operation Hammer on Saturday night. The onslaught of Iran’s nuclear plants was the most violent moment of his two terms and America’s 46-year showdown with the Islamic Republic.
