Iran goes on the offensive as diplomacy with US stalls

Iran's military has started to shift its strategy from retaliation to launching offensive operations against the US and its allies. This change in approach suggests that Iran believes it has gained enough leverage to advance its demands and break the diplomatic stalemate with the US. The shift in strategy could have significant implications for the war and the broader Middle East region, potentially leading to increased tensions and instability.
