The Latest: 2nd week of Israel-Iran war starts with renewed strikes
The second week of the Israel-Iran war has started with a renewed round of strikes despite talks between European ministers and Iran’s top diplomat. Friday’s talks, which aimed at de-escalating the fighting between the two adversaries, lasted for four hours in Geneva, but failed to produce a breakthrough. Meanwhile, a senior adviser for Iran’s Supreme Leader vowed in a social media post Saturday to make the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency “pay” once the war with Israel is over. Mariano Grossi has become a major target for many Iranian officials who say his conflicting statements about the status of Iran’s nuclear program incited the Israeli surprise attack last week.
