Analysis of the War on Iran
SHANA (Tehran) –The 12-day war imposed by the Tel Aviv regime against Iran on 13 June 2025, targeting mainly nuclear and military installations in addition to infrastructure, constitutes one of the most complicated geopolitical crises of recent decades.

It is highly significant to review the Zionist regime and the US objectives and scenarios in the war on Iran.
