Can Strikes in Iran Change the Balance? – i24NEWS Interview

Miri analyzes the operational tempo and strategy behind Israel’s strikes on Iran, emphasizing that the IDF isn’t simply rushing to hit as many targets as possible before a potential ceasefire, but rather consistently targets critical sites day by day. She explains that due to decades of Iranian dispersal and defensive preparations, there will never be a true end to available military targets, and impact comes through cumulative degradation of capabilities. Miri also warns that if a ceasefire approaches, Iran is likely to launch a show of force to frame survival as victory, a tactic borrowed from its proxy groups. Addressing regional security implications, Miri notes that while neither the nuclear nor missile threat from Iran can ever be erased, current actions have severely degraded Iran’s capabilities and exposed the regime, prompting a new, stronger coalition among Gulf states and altering regional dynamics for the long term, even though risks will persist.
