The effect of Israel and America's attack on Iran is being seen all over the world.

Apart from all this, due to this war, sports are also being affected and its worst consequences have come to light. Due to the attack on the country, Iran has refused to participate in this year's FIFA Men's Football World Cup 2026. This World Cup is to be held jointly hosted by America, Mexico and Canada in June-July.

On February 28, when the American and Israeli armies suddenly launched massive air strikes on Iran after several days of tense atmosphere and speculation, the situation started worsening.

After this, Iran also started retaliatory attacks and since then the war is going on between these countries, due to which serious consequences are being seen in different areas.
