The liquidation of a Hamas leader yesterday in Lebanon further inflames the already tense situation in the Middle East. It is no secret that Iran plays a key role in this regional unrest, mainly by supporting various militant groups. These groups not only target Israeli and American targets, but also affect international shipping. Iran's influence is widespread, with active involvement in countries such as Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, and Yemen.
The strategy, originally designed by Qassem Soleimani, the former commander of Iran's Al-Quds Brigade, seems aimed at causing regional unrest without triggering full-scale war. However, with rising tensions on several fronts - including Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Yemen, Gaza, the West Bank Crossing and Iran itself - fears of a full-scale confrontation in the region are growing, writes the Telegraph.
Iran's actions, often carried out through proxy militias, are seen by many countries, including the United States and Israel, as attempts to expand their influence in the region and advance their political agenda. These actions are considered highly provocative and increase the likelihood of further escalation of conflict in an already fragile region.
