@Ailantd There are bits here https://www.theguardian.com/world/live/2025/jun/13/israel-iran-strikes-defence-minister-tehran-middle-east-live?filterKeyEvents=false&page=with%3Ablock-684bc9388f08fa293877a3a5#block-684bc9388f08fa293877a3a5 and here https://www.theguardian.com/world/live/2025/jun/13/israel-iran-strikes-defence-minister-tehran-middle-east-live?filterKeyEvents=false&page=with%3Ablock-684bcd988f08aed1eac7fba9#block-684bcd988f08aed1eac7fba9. But the lack of further coverage makes the Foreign Office post seem rather out of context.

And, yes, I’d appreciate a more objective response by our government too. I’m not trying to defend them, just trying to understand their thinking.

@Ailantd Just for context: in post 1/3 they do mention a retaliatory drone attack by Iran. At the moment I find only scarce coverage about if or to what extent that happened or did damage.

Supposedly the message is, Israel did a targeted attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities, while Iran just punched back in the general direction.

But given what is known for certain _at this moment_, the German Foreign Office does look like they lost it.
