the israeli missile strikes on iran in june 2025 were not only an attack. on the territory of a sovereign nation, but also a direct assault on the lives of ordinary civilians. according to official figures, more than 200 people were killed, and thousands of iranian non-combatants were injured in the attacks. what made this tragedy even more bitter was the death of several well-known athletes and innocent civilians, individuals who were killed without guilt by israeli war planes, drones and bombs. among the victims were names that stood for perseverance, hope and peace. amini, a promising...

young taekwondo athlete, nilufar galibot, a respected paladis instructor, and parsa mansur, a rising star in paddle tennis. these are just some of the 15 athletes whose lives were cut short by israeli missile blasts at the time this video was produced. this is not the first time israel has targeted athletes. the history of sports, especially the olympics, has repeatedly witnessed the brutal killing of palestinian athletes by israel time and again. consider the following names: nagam abu samra, an international karate champion and expected representative for palestine at the 2024 summer olympics was killed in an israeli air strike on her home in the nuserat refugee camp. hanny almazdar, one of palestine's most admired footballers and the olympic team's manager, was killed by schrapnel from an israeli missile that exploded near his home. these are only a few among thousands of palestinian athletes who have been brutally killed by israel. however, in targeting iranian and palestinian athletes, the israeli regime has made no mistake nor accidentally.

bombedd a home, rather, with complete awareness of the symbolic impact of athletes, it has chosen a form of violence that directly attacks the roots of nation's hope. in this context, the continued silence of international sports institutions, and the double standards they apply to israel, can no longer be justified. it is time for the international olympic committee, ioc, to take meaningful and urgent action to break the cycle of violence against athletes.

there are many who believe that the war between iran and israel is part of a wider global struggle, essentially that of the united states and its allies trying to attain global dominance in the face of the developing multipolar world, russia is battling.
