Iran's Resilience and Challenges in Proxy Warfare Across West Asia
Iran's resilience against foreign military pressure is rooted in its history of invasions and sanctions, fostering a collective resolve that diminishes fear of conflict. Meanwhile, Iran's strategy of using proxy groups across West Asia to avoid direct warfare has faced challenges as regional conflicts have intensified and key allies weakened. Despite setbacks, these militias remain active, complicating regional stability and exposing limits to Iran's approach of fighting through distant fronts.
