On February 28, the US and Israel launched attacks on Iran, following a period of tensions between the three countries.

Trump announced a combined operation with Israel against Iran’s military, as well as their politcal leadership, under their codename of Operation Roaring Lion/Epic Fury.

Multiple targets have been hit by missiles, from both sides. With the US targeting missile sites across Iran, including naval facilities and suspected nuclear infrastructure.

In retaliatory attacks, Iran has launched a wave of ballistic missiles at Israeli cities and certain bases, including in Tel Aviv.

They have also targeted US bases in Qatar, Bahrain, UAE, Kuwait a, Saudi Arabia and Jordan, these include major cities like Dubai.

As of March 2, the strikes will continue, with Trump saying the operation will continue, until Iran’s regime and war capabilities are crippled.

Iran has vowed that there will be no leniency, but many argue that they do not have the ability to continue to launch large coordinated attacks.

As we know, Irish citizens are scattered across the world, and there have been multiple reports of Irish people being caught up in this, especially in places like the UAE.

This remains a worry for these people, and their families back home, in Iran there has been stay at home orders, whereas there have been major flight disruptions in UAE.
