Key Phrases
"Direct U.S. strikes on Iranian territory mark a major escalation from proxy/indirect actions to state-on-state military operations.""Targeting of a large ammunition depot (and reports of bunker-busters) risks large secondary explosions and potential damage to nearby military or sensitive facilities.""Regional actors (Gulf states, Israel) are reported to be pushing for continued action, raising the likelihood of sustained campaign rather than an isolated strike.""Retaliation risk is high: Iran has already been connected to attacks on shipping and strikes/reprisals inside the region, which could broaden the conflict to other fronts and actors."
