Why the war took place in Israel-Iran
The reason for the war in Israel and Iran was an attack on Gaza and Lebanon by the Israeli army. But the latest war began when the Israeli army made a big attack on Iran’s atomic and military bases from 200 fighter jets. After this, the Iranian army also started carrying out missile attacks on Israeli military and other major bases. Due to this, the effect of terrible war began to be seen throughout the Middle East.
