Iran's new deterrence strategy in Lebanon
The Israeli strike on the southern suburbs of Beirut sparked widespread reactions, as the issue of tension between Israel and Lebanon was reopened, amidst an Iranian missile response to Israel. The strike comes within the context of Israel's attempt to send a political and military message to Hezbollah and Iran, showing that Tel Aviv is using the suburbs to convey messages beyond the south, in order to strengthen its position in facing regional challenges. Additionally, the Iranian response to the attack reflects Tehran's desire to prevent Lebanon from being used as a base for Israeli operations, reaffirming that the region remains in the eye of the storm, with increasing prospects of escalating tensions amid tense regional balances.
