US and Israel Launch Strikes Against Iran Amid Escalating Tensions

The United States and Israel have launched a series of strikes against Iran, targeting multiple cities including the capital Tehran. The strikes, which were carried out on Saturday morning, come after weeks of escalating tensions between the two countries.

According to reports, the strikes were launched in response to Iran's nuclear program, as well as a domestic crackdown in Iran that has killed thousands of protesters. The US had been engaged in indirect negotiations with Iran over its nuclear program, but these talks appear to have broken down.

Israel declared a state of emergency across the country as the strikes were launched, in anticipation of Iranian retaliation. The Israeli government warned that Iran may respond with drones and ballistic missiles, and urged citizens to remain vigilant.

"We are taking all necessary precautions to protect our citizens and our country," said Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz. "We will not hesitate to defend ourselves against any threat."

The US Department of War also announced that it has designated Anthropic, a company with ties to Iran, as a supply-chain risk. This move is seen as a further escalation of tensions between the US and Iran.

In a separate development, the US Department of War announced that it has designated Anthropic, a company with ties to Iran, as a supply-chain risk. This move is seen as a further escalation of tensions between the US and Iran.

The designation of Anthropic as a supply-chain risk is a significant development, as it suggests that the US is taking steps to limit Iran's access to critical technologies. However, the move is also likely to be seen as provocative by Iran, and may further escalate tensions between the two countries.

In a statement, the US Department of War said that the designation of Anthropic was made in response to concerns about the company's ties to Iran's nuclear program. The statement did not provide further details about the nature of these ties, or the specific risks posed by Anthropic.

The strikes against Iran and the designation of Anthropic as a supply-chain risk are the latest developments in a long-running crisis between the US and Iran. The crisis began in 2018, when the US withdrew from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), a nuclear deal that had been negotiated between Iran and a group of world powers.

Since then, tensions between the US and Iran have continued to escalate, with both countries engaging in a series of provocative actions. The US has imposed a series of sanctions on Iran, while Iran has responded by increasing its nuclear activities.

The situation remains highly volatile, with both countries appearing to be on a collision course. The international community is urging calm and restraint, but it remains to be seen whether diplomacy can prevail.

In other news, a new app has been launched that allows parents to give their kids screen time without feeling guilty. The app, called Pok Pok, uses a Montessori-based approach to learning and fun for kids ages 2 to 8. The app is designed to be non-addictive and educational, and is available for a lifetime subscription of $44.97.
