IRGC claims daily attacks on ships in Strait of Hormuz, challenges US response
Middle East Eye·IR · US · QA·3 days ago
Iran is confronting armed group activity on both its eastern (Balochistan) and northwestern (Kurdistan) borders, coinciding with heightened tensions with the US and Israel. The dual-front pressure suggests a coordinated or opportunistic escalation by regional actors, though the scale and direct external backing remain unclear. This strains Iran's military resources and could signal a broader regional confrontation.
