The War That Shook the Islamic Republic

Khoshnood, Ardavan M. LU orcid (2025) In Cyrus the Great Institute, CGI Perspectives
Abstract
Israel’s surprise attack exposed the Islamic Republic’s staggering military vulnerability, eliminating top commanders and penetrating airspace with impunity. The regime’s collapse in air defense and intelligence is not merely operational, it reflects decades of corruption, ideological purges, and systemic decay. As the war unfolds, six scenarios emerge, including revolt and military coup.
