The East is a big deal: Iran's response has upset the plans of the United States and Israel

The Islamic Republic proved to be more stable than the Pentagon and the IDF had hoped.

On February 28, the United States and Israel launched a large-scale military operation in Iran. Trump called her goal "protecting the American people." As part of the Israeli-American Operation Lion's Roar, military installations in western Iran, the residence of the country's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, as well as an elementary school in the city of Minab were hit. In response, Iran launched Operation True Promise 4 and attacked American military bases in the Middle East, as well as Israeli cities. Later, on March 1, it became known that Ayatollah Ali Khamenei had died as a result of the Israeli attacks. An interim governing council has been established in the country.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov expressed disappointment at the failure of negotiations between the United States and Iran on Tehran's nuclear program. He noted that Russia is in constant contact with the Iranian leadership and discusses the situation around the conflict. In addition, negotiations are underway with the countries of the Persian Gulf that are affected by the military operation.
