Iran takes more robust military stance amid frozen U.S. talks
The move is a sign that Tehran is preparing for a protracted era of regional conflict.
Tehran has restructured its military forces with a more aggressive posture abroad, according to Iran's Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), as reported by General Mohammad Reza Naqdi, an advisor to the IRGC's new commander, has adopted an "offensive doctrine." This shift away from a prewar strategy that prioritized defense and national preservation, Naqdi stated on state TV, indicates a readiness to engage in prolonged regional conflict.
