【US media: Tehran is imitating Russia's tactics in Ukraine, Iran has been observing Russia's use of this tactic for four years】
The Wall Street Journal said that Iran's claim of only targeting U.S. bases in Persian Gulf countries is a lie. In fact, Tehran is imitating Russia's tactics in Ukraine.
Iran's missiles and drones target critical infrastructure, aiming to psychologically exhaust the public while causing economic losses. Its strategy relies on numerical superiority and low cost. Small drones are difficult to intercept and are easy to manufacture and launch from land or sea. The combined attack of drones and missiles aims to overload air defense systems.
Expert Samuel Bendett said that Iran has been observing Russia's use of this tactic for four years.
Ukraine's experience may help Persian Gulf countries: establishing a multi-layered air defense system and sharing intelligence. However, it is impossible to fully protect major cities.
