Iran launches over 100 ballistic missiles toward Israel - sources on X.
In a significant escalation of tensions, Iran has launched over 100 ballistic missiles toward Israel, according to multiple sources. The missile strikes, which occurred on June 14, 2025, were in response to Israel's preemptive strikes against Iran's nuclear facilities and military assets earlier this week. The Iranian government has not yet commented on the strikes, but Israeli officials have stated that they are bracing for a large-scale retaliation [1].The missile launches come as Israel continues its operation, codenamed "Rising Lion," aimed at removing the perceived threat of Iran's nuclear program. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has confirmed that the operation will continue for many days, stating that the goal is to eliminate Iran's nuclear capabilities and protect Israel's survival [2].
The United States has maintained a neutral stance regarding the conflict, with Secretary of State Marco Rubio reiterating that the US was not involved in the Israeli strikes and that its top priority is protecting American forces in the region. Rubio also emphasized that Iran should not target U.S. interests or personnel [3].
Israeli officials have expressed concern about the potential for a large-scale Iranian retaliation, with some Israeli security sources stating that the country is preparing for a significant Iranian response. Israel has banned schools, social gatherings, and non-essential work as it braces for potential retaliation, shifting into a state of emergency [4].
The conflict has raised concerns about potential market disruptions and geopolitical risks. Investors and financial professionals are closely monitoring the situation, as escalating tensions could impact regional stability and global energy markets. As the conflict continues, the focus will be on the potential economic and financial ramifications, as well as the diplomatic efforts to de-escalate the situation.
