#nationalinterest The dreaded H-word is back with us. H, as in hyphenation with Pakistan. Its return is dreaded because our successive governments have laboured for three decades to rid us of what we see as the equivalence the big powers (read the US) used to draw between us and Pakistan. If ally Washington sees the region through an India-Pakistan prism, it’s unacceptable. Rather than endorse India’s sphere of influence, this undermines it.

In the early hours of 13 June, the Middle East came back into focus with Israel launching Operation Rising Lion, striking key military personnel and nuclear targets in Iran. It deployed 200 combat fighters & used over 300 different weapons. US President Donald Trump warned Iran that what comes next could be worse and urged it to negotiate a deal for its nuclear programme. In Episode 1681 of #CutTheClutter, ThePrint Editor-in-Chief Shekhar Gupta explains how a combination of factors led Israel to strike Iran now, why it is calling them 'pre-emptive' & what it achieved.

The strikes under Operation Rising Lion targeted, among other sites, Iran’s main nuclear enrichment complex at Natanz, Israeli PM Netanyahu confirmed in a video message.
