Amid the ongoing conflict involving the United States, Israel, and Iran, recent reports noted that rockets hit an air base in Iraq near Baghdad airport, damaging aircraft and increasing concerns about the safety of military zones in the region​

This comes after United States has reportedly strengthened its military presence by sending hundreds of Special Operations forces, taking the total number of American troops in the Middle East to over 50,000.

Former US President Donald Trump is reportedly considering several strong actions, including securing the important Strait of Hormuz and targeting Iran’s nuclear facilities. There are also discussions about taking control of Iran’s oil resources and enriched uranium, although diplomatic talks are still happening quietly through other countries.

On the other hand,Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei has not been seen in public recently, leading to questions about his health and control over the situation.

The impact of the conflict is now spreading beyond the main war zones. In a tragic incident, an Indian worker was killed in an Iranian attack in Kuwait, showing that civilians are also at risk. Experts believe the situation is becoming highly unstable, with the possibility of a larger regional conflict if tensions continue to grow.
