The US and Israel are at war with Iran — the biggest Middle East conflict in decades. You'll learn how a shadow war became a real one, why 50,000 US troops are now in the region, and what this means for oil prices, global alliances, and your daily life.
The US and Israel launched 'Operation Epic Fury' against Iran in late February 2026 — turning decades of shadow warfare into the biggest Middle East conflict since the Iraq War.
For years, Iran and Israel fought through proxies: Iran funded Hezbollah in Lebanon, Hamas in Gaza, and the Houthis in Yemen, while Israel conducted covert operations against Iran's nuclear program.
