An adviser to Iran's supreme leader recently declared that Iran would alter its nuclear doctrine if Israel posed a threat to its existence, adding yet another layer of complexity to the ongoing debate surrounding Tehran's nuclear ambitions. Despite Iran's consistent claims of pursuing a peaceful nuclear program, Western governments remain sceptical, suspecting ulterior motives behind Iran's nuclear endeavours. This ongoing dispute has resulted in enduring sanctions and heightened tensions on the global stage.

We’ve been very clear …
from the very beginning
that Israel shouldn’t launch
a major attack into Rafah
without accounting for and
protecting the civilians that
are in that battlespace, Lloyd Austin, United States Defense Secretary, via Al Jazeera.
We’ve not made a final
determination on how
to proceed with that
shipment [of weapons], Lloyd Austin, United States Defense Secretary, via Al Jazeera.
