Iran launched its largest-yet attack on Israel on October 1st, employing 180 missiles that it claims hit 90% of its targets. However, Israel has said that it intercepted most of the missiles with the U.S.’ help. How might escalating conflicts in the Middle East affect global stability? In this episode of “Taiwan Talks,” we examine the growing tensions between Israel and Iran, the U.S.’ role in mediating regional conflicts, and the ramifications of these attacks for the global community. Furthermore, we discuss motives behind Israel’s shift toward an offensive stance in the region, whether nuclear facilities are at stake in confrontations, and how international actors are involved in conflicts in the Middle East.
