Iran Devises New Plan To Counter Israel, Urges Support For Gaza & Lebanon In Message To Riyadh

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has delivered a message to Saudi Arabia calling for stronger bilateral ties and regional cooperation. The outreach comes after Israeli and U.S. strikes on Iran and follows an op-ed by Araghchi urging Islamic unity and diplomacy in the Middle East. He emphasised deterrence through cooperation, regional stability, and economic security, particularly concerning Gaza and Lebanon. The move signals a shift in Iran’s approach, pivoting from proxy warfare to formal diplomacy. With many of its armed groups weakened since late 2023, Tehran appears focused on rebuilding regional alliances and countering isolation. The Saudi Foreign Ministry confirmed receipt of the message and discussions on future cooperation.#BreakingNews #MiddleEastUpdate #ForeignPolicy #IranNews #SaudiNews #UnityInIslam #DiplomaticShift #ArabWorld #StrategicAlliance #NewMiddleEast#IsraelIranTensions #USStrikes #ProxyWars #gaza #Lebanon
