In April 2023, a significant escalation between Israel and Iran unfolded as a retaliation chain commenced. The conflict began with an Israeli airstrike on an Iranian diplomatic compound in Damascus, Syria, on April 1, leading to a subsequent Iranian retaliation on April 13. The Iranian attack included over 300 missiles and drones launched at Israel, marking the first direct military engagement between the two nations since 1979.
