Former MI6 Chief: Iran May Have the “Upper Hand”
Former MI6 chief Alex Younger warned that Iran may currently hold the “upper hand” in the war.
In an interview with Shashank Joshi, Younger said the United States underestimated Iran’s resilience, noting that the regime has deployed a wide range of tactics to survive and adapt under pressure.
Analysts point out that despite sustained military pressure, Iran’s leadership and core structures remain intact, raising questions about whether the conflict is achieving its intended goals.
The assessment adds to growing concerns that the war could become prolonged—with no clear resolution in sight.
