• Iran has always acted indirectly in military interventions but this strategy might be changing.
• Missiles fired directly by Iran at enemies in Iraq, Syria, and Pakistan could put the Axis of Resistance in question.
• Iran's direct military involvement could ignite a vast region from the Mediterranean to the Indian border.
• Despite economic sanctions, Iran has strong military, oil resources, controls decisive maritime passes.
• The debate is how to contain the actions of pro-Iranian militias without fully cutting Iran's deterrent power in the region.
• The destabilization of pro-Iranian militias is evident, and requires defensive action and reducing their motives for action.

Conclusion: It is necessary to increase efforts in achieving a ceasefire in Gaza and open a new chapter in the Middle East leading to the establishment of a Palestinian state that can live in peace and security with Israel.
