Israel attacks Iran, sources say, drones reported over Isfahan
Quick Glance: Israel Attacks Iran, Drones Spotted Over Isfahan
  • Israel launched an attack on Iranian soil on Friday, sources said, in the latest tit-for-tat exchange between the two arch foes, potentially escalating the conflict in the region.

  • The United States received notification before Israel's attack, which came after Iran's strike on Israel. Global powers urged Israel to limit any further retaliation to prevent a broader escalation.

  • A senior Iranian official cast doubt on whether Israel was responsible. Official comments and news reports did not mention Israel, and state TV downplayed the incident.

  • The International Atomic Energy Agency confirmed no damage to Iran's nuclear sites in Israel's alleged attack. Iran maintains its nuclear work is peaceful, while the West believes it aims to build a weapon.

Quick Glance: Physicist Peter Higgs Passes Away at 94
  • Physicist Peter Higgs, whose theory of an undetected particle in the universe changed science, has died at 94, according to the University of Edinburgh.

  • The discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012 at the CERN research center was a significant advancement in understanding the cosmos, steering physics towards once-fantastical ideas.

  • Higgs, initially 'incompetent' in the physics lab, later specialized in theoretical physics, inspired by quantum physicist Paul Dirac from his school.

  • The Higgs boson's completion of the Standard Model opened doors to explore unexplained aspects of the universe and abstract concepts like parallel universes, despite Higgs disliking the 'God particle' nickname.
