The recent US strikes on Iranian targets highlight the complex dynamics of regional tensions and the evolving nature of modern warfare.
The increasing reliance on advanced technologies, including AI, stealth fighters, and low-cost attack drones, raises critical questions about accountability, transparency, and the potential for unintended consequences.
