Middle East Correspondent Alistair Bunkall told Ryan Bridge that Iran had to respond in some way to the attacks, but this could be the end of their response. He says it could provide an off-ramp for the conflict, but it depends on the way Donald Trump sees it. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's thought that as long as the United States doesn't get involved, the Iran and Israel conflict should stay contained. Tension continues to escalate between the two countries as air strikes continue to fire. Speculation around a ceasefire is being discussed with US President Donald Trump encouraging the nations to talk before it's too late. Middle East correspondent Gregg Carlstrom told Ryan Bridge Israel has been planning this war for years, and isn't willing to stop after a few days. He says the Iranians are willing to talk about a mutual ceasefire but doesn't think Israel or the United States are at a point where they would push for that.

Israel says it will strike 'every site and every target' of Iran as the conflict escalates. The two countries continue to exchange air attacks after Iran launched waves of missiles in retaliation for Israeli strikes on Friday.

"The question is, now, what will Iran do in response? There have been some threats from the Iranian Government throughout the day that they might escalate their own strikes."

Gregg Carlstrom, Middle East Correspondent with The Economist, outlines international - and local - pressure facing the Israeli government for its' military operation in Gaza.

There's a shifting international view of Israel as its war on Gaza shows little sign of relenting. After global pressure, including from the US, Israel has relented on a months-long blockade and let in limited aid - but none's been distributed so far. It's also continued firing on Gaza, where more than 53,000 people have died to date. Sky News' Alistair Bunkall says there's a strong sense - even among Isarelis - that the country has taken this too far. "There is a political dynamic to it for Netanyahu's own political reasons - and they are opposed to it and the damage that it's doing on their nation's reputation internationally."
