Can Iran’s asymmetric warfare hold US-Israeli military power at bay?
AI Summary
In March 2026, despite US President Trump's claims of victory in the US-Israeli war on Iran, Iran's retaliatory strikes against Israel and US assets have continued, disrupting global markets. Following US-Israeli strikes on Tehran that killed Iranian leaders, Iran's Foreign Minister stated that bombings would not impact Iran's ability to wage war. Analysts suggest Iran is employing "asymmetric" warfare tactics due to its conventional military inferiority compared to the US and Israel. This involves unconventional methods like guerrilla tactics, cyberattacks, and the use of proxies to offset conventional weaknesses and exploit vulnerabilities. Experts say that these methods are central to Iran's grand strategy.
