Iran's 'Axis of Resistance' Faces Setbacks

Edited by: Татьяна Гуринович

According to experts, Iran's 'Axis of Resistance,' once a source of fear, appears to have turned away from the Islamic Republic, leaving the theocracy in distress as it struggles for survival and diminishing influence in the Middle East. While Tehran has spent decades building up militias in Gaza, Lebanon, Yemen, Iraq, and Syria, most of these groups have declined in recent years, becoming unable and unwilling to confront the Jewish state and support Iran. Instead, Iran's once-loyal proxies, including Hezbollah, Hamas, the Houthis, and Shiite militias, are focused on their own survival.
