Iran launches missile barrage on Israel as doubts grow over Trump’s diplomatic pushTensions across the Middle East escalated sharply on Tuesday as Iran launched multiple waves of missiles targeting Israel, despite renewed diplomatic signals from Donald Trump.The ആക്രമণ came just a day after Trump described recent talks with Tehran as “very good and productive,” raising hopes of a potential breakthrough to halt the intensifying conflict involving US and Israeli forces.However, the latest military escalation appears to have undercut those expectations. Sirens reportedly sounded across major Israeli cities, including Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, as defense systems worked to intercept incoming missiles.Iran, meanwhile, dismissed Trump’s remarks about possible joint control of the Strait of Hormuz, signaling resistance to US proposals and continuing its aggressive posture in the region.According to three senior Israeli officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity, there is deep skepticism within Israeli leadership about the prospects for a deal. While they believe Trump is determined to pursue an agreement, they consider it highly unlikely that Iran will accept key US demands in any upcoming negotiations.The latest exchange underscores the widening gap between diplomatic efforts and realities on the ground, as the conflict—now involving multiple countries—continues to intensify with no immediate resolution in sight.Analysts warn that continued missile strikes and stalled negotiations could further destabilize the region, increasing the risk of a broader and more prolonged war.
