Iran has activated its "mosaic defense" doctrine, a strategy designed to enable military operations to continue even if the country's top leadership is eliminated. This move comes amid heightened concerns over a potential joint military strike by the United States and Israel. The doctrine allows for decentralized operations, meaning military units can act independently without waiting for orders from Tehran, even if the central command is destroyed. Local military commanders have reportedly received lists of potential targets related to American economic and political interests across the region, which could be struck in the event of a large-scale conflict. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has been reorganized into 31 provincial commands, each with significant autonomy, its own armaments, supplies, and decision-making authority within its designated tasks. However, reports of the doctrine's activation and target list preparation should be viewed with caution, as these details alone do not confirm the inevitability of military action between Iran, the U.S., and Israel.
