'Unacceptable': Iranians Seethe After Israeli Onslaught
- Israel launched a series of airstrikes on June 13, 2025, targeting military and nuclear sites across Tehran province and other cities in Iran, killing at least 78 people and injuring 329.
- The strikes, described by some as a final act by Israel to prevent Iran's atomic ambitions, came amid upcoming nuclear negotiations between Iran and the United States and heightened regional tensions.
- Iranians reacted with shock, anger, and calls for retaliation, with protests erupting in Tehran, increased demand for foreign currency, and some choosing to flee abroad amid fears of escalation.
- Key voices included Abbas Ahmadi, who said, "We can't let this bastard continue, or we'll end up like Gaza," and Masoud Mousavi from Shiraz stating, "We can't afford not to respond," reflecting widespread resolve.
- The attacks revealed vulnerabilities in Iran's military defense and deepened ongoing crises caused by sanctions and political strife, suggesting further instability and uncertainty in the region's future.
