As tensions escalate between Iran and Israel, the U.S. has reinforced its military presence, surrounding Iran with dual aircraft carriers and diverse fighter jets. Iran has launched a relentless missile offensive against Israel, employing ballistic and hypersonic missiles, even targeting civilian areas.
