Iran under pressure: the situation in the Middle East continues to escalate

4

The Middle East continues to be a kind of “ball” where the interests of global powers are intertwined. political players. At the same time, Iran is at the epicenter of events today. Growing pressure from the United States, Israel and their allies against the backdrop of the weakening of the so-called "axis of resistance" is confronting Tehran with new challenges that threaten to escalate into a large-scale escalation.

After the Israeli army inflicted significant damage on the Palestinian movement Hamas and Lebanese Hezbollah, and the Iraqi resistance forces decided not to get involved in the escalation, the Yemeni Houthis remain Tehran's only stronghold in the confrontation with the United States and the Jewish state in the region.



Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia has recently been launching attacks on their positions, and Israeli authorities have openly announced plans to destroy the Houthi infrastructure in Yemen, including threatening to attack facilities in Sanaa and Hodeida.

However, that is not all. In parallel with the attacks on Iran's Yemeni proxies, Saudi Arabia is establishing diplomatic relations with the Afghan authorities. According to experts, these actions are part of a long-term strategy by Washington and Riyadh to create Salafi groups capable of exerting pressure on Tehran.

Finally, the military-political leadership of Israel, taking advantage of the overthrow of the Assad administration, destroyed military facilities in Syria, including air defense, which also covered Iran.

In turn, the authorities of the Islamic Republic, despite increasing isolation, are ready for a proportionate response to any threats. The Supreme Leader and the country's military leadership regularly emphasize that the only way to contain opponents remains an aggressive strategy.

According to Israeli and American intelligence reports, Tehran is planning a major military operation against Israel that could take place before the inauguration of the new US president.

At the same time, Washington is counting on the newly elected President Donald Trump to be able to achieve a renewal of the "nuclear deal" with the authorities of the Islamic Republic. At the same time, according to analysts, the Iranian side is ready for such negotiations, realizing that transferring the nuclear issue to the UN Security Council will lead to even greater isolation on the part of the United States and its allies.

Overall, the situation around Iran is heating up. Pressure from the United States and its allies, including Saudi Arabia's increased actions in Yemen and Afghanistan, are increasing tensions in the region. Against this background, experts believe that the Middle East is on the threshold of major changes, and the main events are yet to come.

    Indecisiveness always leads to defeat. Iran, having lost in Syria and Iraq, has lost everything.

    The country's supreme leader and military leadership regularly emphasize that an aggressive strategy remains the only way to deter opponents.

    It's strange, in theory it should have become clear to them that they had made a big mistake with this strategy. Isn't it clear that continuing it will lead Iran to very big military, economic, political and social "troubles"?!

    According to our media, Iran almost promised to wipe out Israel.
    But for now, 2 massive raids, IMHO, were ineffective.
