The conflict began on 28 February 2026, when coordinated airstrikes by the United States and Israel targeted sites across Iran, triggering a wave of Iranian retaliatory missile and drone attacks against Israel and Arab countries. What US president Donald Trump thought to be a limited strategic military operation against the Iranian regime has since expanded into a wider confrontation affecting multiple countries, global energy markets, and international security.<\/p>\n<p>This panel discussion will examine the causes, escalation dynamics, and potential outcomes of the conflict. We will react to latest developments.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mehrzad Boroujerdi, <\/strong>Vice Provost and Dean of College of Arts, Sciences, and Education at Missouri University of Science and Technology.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Danny Citrinowicz, <\/strong>nonresident fellow with the Atlantic Council's Middle East Programs, fellow at the Institute for National Security Studies.
