**Escalation in Israel-Iran Conflict: Bombing Campaign Intensifies**

As military tensions rise, the situation raises concerns over regional stability and global energy supply.

Israeli forces intensified their military actions against Iran on Monday, conducting bombings that expanded from solely nuclear sites to critical military installations and even state-operated media. This aggressive strategy has already prompted mass evacuations from Tehran as the conflict enters its fourth day. Some of these assaults were captured live, including one on the state broadcaster, disrupting broadcasts while injuring several staff members.

Notably, Israeli airstrikes targeted the Quds Force command center in Tehran—a significant element of Iran’s military responsible for foreign operations. The implications of this bombing could hamper Iran’s operational abilities, particularly in managing proxy affiliations like Hezbollah and Hamas, which have been central to Iran’s influence in the Middle East.

In retaliation, Iran launched missile attacks on Israel, including strikes on critical infrastructure such as the country's largest oil refinery, but many of these were intercepted by Israel's air defense system. The shift from targeted strikes to broader assaults targeting energy and communications suggests a decisive change in Israel's operational tactics against Iran, which has already been facing a weakened military position due to recent years of sustained military pressure, including leadership assassinations and strategic strikes on key military resources.

This escalation in the ongoing conflict raises alarm regarding potential wider regional instability and could have extensive implications for global energy markets, given the strategic importance of both nations in the oil supply chain.
