Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has announced a dramatic shift in its military doctrine from defensive to offensive, warning that renewed attacks by the US regime could prompt Tehran to invade neighboring countries and target American military bases. The aggressive posture comes amid escalating maritime incidents in the critical Strait of Hormuz and a complete deadlock in diplomatic efforts to resolve ongoing regional conflicts.

According to IRGC spokesman Hossein Mohebi, Tehran will no longer limit its operations to retaliatory strikes, asserting that the country's missile stockpiles and technological precision have increased substantially. Analysts suggest that the Iranian authorities are implementing an asymmetric warfare strategy designed to impose heavy military, economic, and political costs on Washington, potentially aiming to influence upcoming domestic political outcomes in the United States.

Meanwhile, the American regime and Israeli authorities continue to signal the possibility of imminent military action, prompting the US Department of State to order the departure of non-emergency personnel and their families from Saudi Arabia. Observers warn that the combination of shifting military doctrines, stalled negotiations, and mounting disruptions in vital energy corridors significantly increases the probability of a broader confrontation.
