Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps intelligence agency said analysis of
political, economic, social and military trends over the past 60 days shows
adversaries increasingly using cognitive and intelligence warfare to recalibrate
strategy toward Iran. It said tactics include downplaying the strategic
importance of the Strait of Hormuz, weakening the influence of the Resistance
Front, intensifying efforts to impose a maritime blockade on Iran, and
amplifying domestic divisions, economic vulnerabilities and social discontent to
erode internal cohesion. The agency said Iran is boosting national resilience,
retaining asymmetric combat capabilities, continuing to assert control over the
Strait of Hormuz, and moving from reactive defense to seeking greater strategic
initiative.
