Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has unveiled a new military doctrine emphasizing "offensive and asymmetrical" operations, warning that it will retaliate against any nation that strikes its forces or interests. The shift signals a hardening stance, suggesting preemptive or unconventional responses to perceived threats rather than limited defensive measures. Analysts note the move could escalate regional tensions by lowering the threshold for conflict. The announcement underscores Tehran’s determination to deter external interference in its operations.
