Veteran screenwriter and lyricist Javed Akhtar strongly reacted after the United States and Israel launched a major attack on Iran on Saturday, plunging the Middle East into a dangerous phase of military escalation that led to swift retaliation from Tehran, triggered explosions and emergency alerts across multiple Gulf countries, and resulted in the killing of Iran's Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

On Sunday, Akhtar took to his X (formerly Twitter) handle and wrote, "I think this time trump and Israel have over played there hand because if they are allowed to get away with this audacity and do an Iraq to Iran China will lose her total credibility in the world. Netanyahu and Trump like all the bullies have pushed others to the wall and ultimately left no choice to others but to react in a decisive manner."
