Can Iran’s Asymmetric Warfare Deter US-Israel Military Power?

Despite President Donald Trump’s claims of victory in the US-Israeli war on Iran, Tehran continues to retaliate against Israel and US military assets, impacting global financial and energy markets. Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi stated that bombings in their capital do not hinder their ability to wage war, utilizing asymmetric warfare tactics to strike the US and Israel. Iran’s use of unconventional methods such as guerrilla tactics and cyberattacks aims to offset conventional inferiority and exploit vulnerabilities. With Washington and Tel Aviv using expensive missiles and drones, Iran focuses on defending against strikes and protecting its own weapons supplies. While Iran’s asymmetric approach serves as a survival and leverage mechanism, it does not guarantee decisive victory in the conflict. Iran’s asymmetric tactics include enemy depletion strategies, economic warfare through targeting critical infrastructure, and disrupting global financial markets.
