Iran's coalition of resistance groups escalates attacks against Israel and the US
Iran's "axis of resistance," which includes Hezbollah, Hamas, and various groups in Syria, Iraq, and Yemen, has increased coordinated attacks against Israel and the U.S. since the Gaza war began. This coalition has launched missile strikes and supported regional militias. The coalition has grown significantly since the October 7 attack by Hamas, which triggered the Gaza war. Hezbollah, based in Lebanon, and Yemen's Huthi rebels are key players, with Iran providing training and support to these groups. The "axis of resistance" operates under a unified strategy to confront Israel from multiple fronts. This includes daily exchanges of fire between Hezbollah and Israel, missile launches from Yemen, and coordinated drone attacks from Iraqi militias.
