"Iran's Expansionist Missile Strategy in West Asia"

Iran's unprecedented attack on Erbil, Iraq, is seen as an attempt to shift the focus of any future US-Iran war to Iraq, following security failures in the Kerman bombings. The attack has strained relations between Baghdad and Tehran, leading to Iraq recalling its ambassador to Iran and submitting a complaint to the UN. There are reports of increased military movements in Iraq, indicating preparations for potential conflict, while Iraqi officials express a desire to avoid being a battleground for US-Iran tensions.
