Iran's Reluctance to Escalate Conflict with Israel

Iran has shown hesitation to engage directly in the escalating conflict with Israel, despite Hezbollah's appeals for support. Senior Hezbollah officials reportedly sought Iranian assistance to retaliate against Israel's attacks in Lebanon, but Iranian leaders declined to act at this time. The caution stems from concerns about the potential devastation to the Iranian economy should their forces become directly involved. This reluctance indicates a preference within Iran to maintain its proxy relationships rather than risk entanglement in a wider conflict that could threaten the regime's stability.
