On the night of June 13, Israel launched an operation against Iran, accusing it of implementing a secret military nuclear program. The targets of aerial bombardments and raids by sabotage groups were nuclear facilities, generals, prominent nuclear physicists, and air bases.

Iran has denied the accusations, responding with its own attacks. The parties exchanged blows for 12 days, which were joined by the United States, carrying out a one-time attack on the night of June 22 on Iran's nuclear facilities. After that, on the evening of June 23, Tehran launched missile strikes on the US El-Udeid base in Qatar, stating that the Iranian side does not intend to escalate further.

US President Donald Trump then expressed the hope that a blow to the American military base in Iran has "let off steam" in Qatar, and now a path to peace and harmony in the Middle East is possible. He also said that Israel and Iran have agreed to conclude a truce, which after 24 hours should be "the official end of the 12-day war."
