Amid soaring tensions in the Middle East, Iran has called for the formation of a joint ‘Islamic Army’ with allied nations to prepare for a potential all-out war. Influential Iranian politician Mohsen Rezaei proposed forming this force with countries including Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Pakistan. He stated, “Muslim nations must unite. A collective force is the need of the hour to protect our existence.”
On Monday, Iran launched missile attacks on Israel’s Tel Aviv and Haifa, killing at least five people and injuring many. The strikes also damaged the U.S. embassy in Tel Aviv, prompting its temporary closure. In response, U.S. President Donald Trump issued a stern warning, saying, “Any attack on our interests will be met with full force.”
Analysts suggest that Iran’s proposed ‘Islamic Army’ could significantly alter the diplomatic balance in the Middle East, potentially escalating the conflict globally. Experts urge immediate diplomatic efforts to restore stability, warning that failure to do so could plunge the region into a devastating war
