Conflict in the Middle East
Expert warns of the expansion of the conflict in the Middle East
Israel weakened Iran a bit. However, the attacks would have to continue for days or weeks in order to make the country’s nuclear skills substantial, a military expert says.
According to an Australian military expert, the massive air strikes of the Israeli forces on nuclear facilities and military facilities in Iran could continue for a while. “I think that will continue for a few more days, possibly weeks,” Mick Ryan told CNN. It was also clear that the Iranian reaction was “significantly weakened” by the Israeli attacks.
The overall actions of the Israeli military had an impact, said Ryan. “But it will take a few more days for the Israelis Iran’s nuclear and ballistic skills to weaken.” Israel had attacked Iran on Friday night. The Islamic Republic reacted with counterattacks.
There is a risk of spreading the conflict
The risk of expansion is great, warned military expert Ryan. “There is considerable potential that this conflict will expand into a much larger and more comprehensive one in the coming days and weeks.” He expected Iran to mobilize allies, he said to the broadcaster. “Not only to attack Israel, but also Israeli interests all over the world – and possibly also countries that openly support Israel, including the United States.”
From the region, attacks by the militant Islamist Huthi militia in Yemen are conceivable. “The Huthi could definitely decide to move again, as they did after October 7 and the attacks on Israel.” However, it is also possible that Iranian intelligence officers attack Israeli messages.
