Iran’s Axis of Resistance Could Involve Militia Forces
Iran has armed regional militias through the Revolutionary Guard as part of its asymmetric strategy. Hezbollah and Iraqi Popular Mobilization Forces are key limbs, with tens of thousands of fighters and missiles, plus Yemen’s Houthis capable of drone and missile strikes that threaten shipping and Israel. The potential for Kurdish and Sunni groups to join conflicts adds risk of wider regional escalation and deeper US and Israeli responses.
