红星观察｜以伊对攻暂呈“半斤八两” 专家：未来真正变量，是美国是否进一步介入

Core Viewpoint - The ongoing military confrontation between Iran and Israel has escalated from "remote confrontation" to "direct attacks," with both sides demonstrating strong offensive capabilities but significant defensive weaknesses, necessitating external support for both parties [2][4]. Group 1: Military Actions - Since June 13, Israel has conducted large-scale airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities and military targets, resulting in significant casualties [2]. - Iran has retaliated with ballistic missiles and drones, launching approximately 100 missiles in one attack and planning to increase this number to 4,000 in future strikes [4][5]. - Both Iran and Israel have engaged in multiple rounds of airstrikes against each other's critical infrastructure, including oil production and military facilities [3][4]. Group 2: Strategic Analysis - Both Iran and Israel exhibit strong offensive capabilities; however, they have notable defensive shortcomings. Israel's air defense systems are insufficient against large-scale missile attacks, while Iran's missile capabilities pose a continuous threat [4][5]. - The tactical balance between the two nations has reached a point where their offensive capabilities are somewhat equalized, despite Iran's missile costs being significantly higher than Israel's interception costs [5]. Group 3: International Implications - The conflict has broader implications for global energy, shipping, and financial systems, potentially leading to international chain reactions [2]. - The U.S. has canceled the sixth round of nuclear negotiations with Iran, indicating a shift in diplomatic efforts due to the escalating conflict [6]. - There are indications that the U.S. may apply pressure on Iran to return to negotiations, but Iran remains firm on its nuclear rights and is unlikely to compromise easily [6][9].
