The memorial bombing will likely exacerbate tensions between Israel and Iran, as both already distrust each other. The late General Soleimani was a significant figure in Iran, leading the Islamic Revolutionary Guards and supporting terror groups across the Middle East. His assassination by the US in 2020 fuelled anti-Western sentiments in Iran. There is no clear evidence implicating the US or Israel in the recent bombing, and their typical strategy doesn't align with this type of attack. War with Iran remains a possibility, especially if Iran continues its aggressive activities through its proxies in Yemen, Lebanon, Iraq, and Syria. The longer these auxiliary conflicts persist, the greater the risk of direct involvement from Iran.
