The two powers have been exchanging barrages since Israel attacked Iran and killed many of the country’s top military leaders and scientists.

But the attack has far-reaching implications for the two middle-east nations and the region as a whole. Above all else, the conflict has the potential to disrupt peace and progress in the two nations and create a state of instability for as long as the war lasts.

Despite not relying on Iran for its oil supplies, petrol and other prices in Australia will rise due to the global impact of the Israel–Iranian war.

The Biden administration rallied to Israel’s side when Israel struck Iran last year in retaliation for Iranian backing for its enemies in its war against Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah and for an intense barrage of Iranian missiles on Israel.

The ongoing conflict between Israel and Iran, marked by missile and drone attacks, poses significant implications for India's oil prices and trade routes.

In May 2025, the US and Israel then advanced a new aid mechanism for Gaza run by private security contractors operating in Israeli-approved “safe zones”. Aid is conditional on population displacement, with civilians in northern Gaza denied access unless they relocate.

Israel’s latest strike on Iran highlights Tehran’s controversial nuclear program, which continues to spark international concern. At the core lies a disputed pursuit of nuclear capabilities with major geopolitical ramifications.

"This confrontation will not end with last night's limited actions and Iran's strikes will continue, and this action will be very painful and regrettable for the aggressors," Fars reported, citing senior military officials.
