The recent Iranian assault on Israel, launched on April 13th, ultimately failed, presenting strategic advantages for Israel and reshaping regional dynamics.
Despite Iran’s attempt to retaliate for the assassination of General Hassan Mahdavi in Damascus, Israel, bolstered by support from the United States, effectively repelled the attack.
Iran has declared the adoption of a new approach in its relationship with Israel, marking the end of the “strategic patience” policy initiated by Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.
The conflict between Israel and Iran has entered a new phase, posing a challenge to Israel’s stance. It cannot acquiesce to Iran’s new approach, which seeks to constrain its freedom of military action in the Middle East.
Senior security officials estimate that Iran will intensify the smuggling of weapons into northern Samaria in the near future, prompting armed terrorist groups to carry out attacks in retaliation for the assassination of Hassan Mahdavi.

The ongoing conflict in the Gaza Strip is often seen as part of a broader strategy by Iran to destabilize the Middle East. However, the situation is multifaceted, with various actors and interests at play.
Israel finds itself in a precarious position, facing not only the immediate challenge of the conflict in Gaza but also the looming threats of potential conflict with Hezbollah and Iran’s pursuit of nuclear weapons.
While Israel must maintain its sovereignty and security, it should also tread carefully in its dealings with the United States, ensuring it does not unnecessarily strain its relationship with its ally while addressing the Iranian threat.
The recent attacks on Israel by the Iran-led “Axis of Evil” underscore a concerning trend: President Biden’s policies in the Middle East over the past three years have failed to deter Iran’s aggressive actions.
Despite being a superpower capable of crippling Iran’s military capabilities, the effectiveness of US deterrence hinges on the president’s resolve.
Jordan and Gulf countries have accused Iran and Hamas of fomenting a new wave of protests in Arab nations, akin to the 2011 phenomenon known as the “Arab Spring,” with the aim of toppling moderate Arab regimes.
While Hamas leaders abroad deny these allegations, the military leadership in the Gaza Strip has remained silent.
Senior officials in the US and Israel anticipate an imminent response from Iran following the assassination of Hassan Mahdavi, the commander of the Quds Force in Syria and Lebanon, reportedly attributed to Israel. However, there’s a cautious expectation that Iran’s retaliation will be measured, aiming to avoid escalating tensions into a full-scale war between Israel and Iran, which could potentially trigger a wider regional conflict.
Iran is adopting a cautious strategy in its ongoing confrontation with Israel. Despite enduring significant setbacks in Syria, Tehran currently appears disinclined to engage in an all-out war with Israel.Rather than pursuing immediate escalation, Iran is intensifying its campaign of attrition against Israel while implementing a strategy aimed at uniting various arenas of conflict.
In preparation for the occupation of Rafah, Iran is working to help Hamas and plans to open a new front from the Jordanian border against Israel.
A pro-Iranian militia in Iraq announced its willingness to arm 12,000 fighters in Jordan to fight against Israel. King Abdullah is very worried and is trying to stop the escalation in his country.
