Iran's Revolutionary Guards Announce Shift to Offensive Military Doctrine

Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), an elite military branch, announced a shift to an "offensive and asymmetrical" defence doctrine. "Asymmetrical" refers to unconventional tactics against stronger opponents. Spokesman Hossein Mohebi warned that renewed US attacks could prompt Iran to invade neighbouring countries and strike bases used in US military operations. Iran's doctrine previously focused on defensive retaliation.
