Iransk general död i flygkrasch

Olyckan uppges ha skett med en så kallad gyrokopter, en liten helikopterliknande luftfarkost, i samband med någon form av stridsåtgärd i en pågående "anti-terroroperation" i östra Iran. General Hamid Mazandarani rapporteras ha omkommit tillsammans med en pilot. Enligt den kontrollerade information som når ut skedde kraschen i närheten av staden Sirkan, som ligger i den oroliga provinsen Sistan och Baluchistan som gränsar mot Afghanistan och Pakistan. Irans väpnade styrkor, där revolutionsgardet ingår, inledde en militär operation där den 26 oktober, efter att tio poliser blivit dödade i ett dåd som tillskrivs sunnimuslimska milismän. I maj i år omkom Irans president Ebrahim Raisi i en annan helikopterolycka i Iran, tillsammans med utrikesminister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian och sex andra personer.

CIA-anställd gripen – läckte attackplan

CIA-anställd gripen – läckte attackplan

En CIA-anställd man har gripits i Kambodja, rapporterar amerikanska medier. Mannen anklagas för att ha läckt hemligstämplade dokument om Israels planer på hämndattacker mot Iran tidigare i år. Mannen uppges ha gripits på tisdagen och kommer på torsdagen att ställas inför en domstol på det amerikanska Stillahavsterritoriet Guam, skriver The New York Times. Underrättelsetjänsten CIA har enligt tidningen inte velat kommentera gripandet. Uppgifterna om läckan blev först offentliga den 19 oktober. De topphemliga dokumenten sades då ha läckt till en proiransk Telegramkanal från en avdelning inom USA:s försvarsdepartement.

FBI: Iran planerade att mörda Trump

FBI: Iran planerade att mörda Trump

FBI utreder misstänkt mordplan mot USA:s tillträdande president Donald Trump för presidentvalet, rapporterar AP. En iranskt tjänsteman inom islamiska regimens revolutionsgarde misstänks för inbladning i mordplanerna, enligt ett dokument som lämnats in till den federala domstolen, rapporterar nyhetsbyrån. Mannen ska i september förra året gett instruktioner till en lönnmördare i USA för att att övervaka och slutligen mörda Trump. Stoppades av FBI Två andra män har gripits för inblandning i mordplanen mot Trump. De två männen ska ha rekryterats för att begå andra mord, bland andra mot en framstående iransk-amerikansk journalist. Mordplanen stoppade av den federala polisen FBI. Mannen har under ett förhör uppgett att om uppdraget misslyckades skulle mordplanen återupptas efter presidentvalet. Det amerikanska justitiedepartementet offentliggjorde dokumentet några dagar efter att Trump segrade i presidentvalet. ”Det finns få aktörer i världen som utgör ett lika allvarligt hot mot USA:s nationella säkerhet som Iran”, uppger justitieminister Merrick B. Garland i ett uttalande. Federala tjänstemän har tidigare varnat för ”pågående ansträngningar” från Iran att rikta in sig på amerikanska regeringstjänstemän, inklusive Trump.

ANALYS: Blir hårdare tag mot Iran – vägen dit kan bli blodig

ANALYS: Blir hårdare tag mot Iran – vägen dit kan bli blodig

En av de första ledarna i världen att gratulera Donald Trump var Israels premiärminister Benjamin Netanyahu. Det var inte oväntat. Bibi och Trump är omskrivit nära vänner, vilket blev tydligt under Trumps förra vända i Vita huset. Vid ett av alla israeliska val under den perioden, pryddes valaffischerna av Netanyahu sida vid sida med Trump, som om de gick till val tillsammans. I samma kompisanda flyttade Trump den amerikanska ambassaden till Jerusalem, erkände Golanhöjderna som en del av Israel och pushade för de så kallade Abrahamavtalen där Israel normaliserade relationerna med flera länder i regionen. Trump fick även stöd bland arabiska ledare efter att ha gått hårt åt Iran. Inte minst mordet på den iranske överbefälhövaren Soleimani, eller när Trump drog sig ur kärnenergiavtalet med Iran. Många hoppades att det skulle leda till att den iranska regimens klor om Mellanöstern skulle börja släppa. Segrar som låg grund till katastrofen Men då var läget annorlunda. Kriget mellan Israel och Palestina var lågintensivt, fokus låg på att besegra terrororganisationen Islamiska staten i Irak och Syrien. IS besegrades, Trump lovade att amerikanska soldater skulle lämna Irak och ett fredsavtal pressades också fram med talibanerna i Afghanistan. Det var en tid med flera kortsiktiga segrar för Trump. Segrar som sedan låg till grund för den katastrofala situation som Mellanöstern med omnejd befinner sig i i dag. När Trump sätter sig i presidentstolen denna period är situationen helt annorlunda. Israel och Palestina är i blickpunkten, det vill säga en konflikt som skapar betydligt större splittring än vad IS, talibaner eller ens den iranska regimen någonsin gjort. Grönt ljus till Israel Vi kan räkna med att hans vänskap till Israel kommer att bestå och många på den israeliska högersidan kommer se det som att de fått grönt ljus till det mesta. Frågan är hur långt Trump själv går? Hela vägen till en annektering av Västbanken? Grönt ljus för en ockupering av Gaza och södra Libanon? Eller snarare bortplockade sanktioner mot bosättare och fullt stöd till Israel i kriget mot Iran? Eftersom Donald Trump har en tydlig ekonomisk linje i sin utrikespolitik lär ett av målen bli att få till ett normaliseringsavtal mellan Israel och Saudiarabien. Då kan han inte gå för hårt fram mot palestinierna. Så det mest sannolika är hårdare tag mot Iran, pressa dem till att strypa sitt stöd till huthierna i Jemen, Hizbollah i Libanon och Hamas i Gaza och att eventuellt få till ett nytt kärnenergiavtal som passar Trump. Frågan är hur blodig och farlig vägen dit blir?

Källor: Då attackerar Iran Israel – med mer avancerade robotar

Den 1 oktober attackerade Iran israeliska militärbaser, vilket beskrevs som en hämnd för att Israel dödat Hamas- och Hizbollahledare. Israeliskt stridsflyg svarade i sin tur med angrepp mot flera platser i Iran den 26 oktober, där viktiga militäranläggningar förstördes. De senaste dagarna har tonläget i Mellanöstern höjts ännu ett snäpp och omvärlden håller andan inför ytterligare eskalering av kriget. I lördags framträdde Irans högste ledare ayatolla Ali Khamenei ett tal, där han hotade Israel och USA med ett ”förkrossande svar” på attacker mot Iran och dess allierade. – Fienden, oavsett om det är sionistregimen eller USA, kommer definitivt att få känna på en ett förkrossande svar för vad de gör mot Iran, den iranska nationen och motståndsfronten, sade han i talet som sändes i statliga iranska medier. Khamenei gav inga detaljer om tidpunkt eller omfattning i sitt tal. USA har kontaktat Iran Det senaste utspelet har fått USA att komma med egna hot. I söndags rapporterade Axios att USA varnat Iran för att inleda ytterligare en vedergällningsattack mot Israel, och betonat att amerikanerna inte kommer kunna hålla tillbaka Israel från svara kraftfullt. – Vi har sagt till iranierna: Vi kommer inte att kunna hålla tillbaka Israel, och vi kommer inte att kunna se till att nästa attack blir lika välavvägd som den förra, uppger en amerikansk tjänsteman till tidningen. Enligt den amerikanska källan ska budskapet förmedlades direkt till Iran. Den israeliska tjänstemannen uppger dock att ett meddelande skickades från Washington till Teheran genom Schweiz. Källor: Då kommer attacken Vita huset har avböjt att kommentera uppgifterna. Iran har inte heller gett något kommentar, enligt tidningen. En eventuell iransk attack kan nu vara mycket nära anstående. Enligt en iransk källa till Wall Street Journal ska vedergällningen ske efter tisdagens amerikanska val. Den planerade attacken beskrivs som ”kraftfull och komplex”. Diplomater i regionen som fått insyn i planerna nämner bland annat att kraftigare och mer avancerade robotar än tidigare kommer att användas, skriver WSJ. Tidigare uppgifter har gjort gällande att Irans attack väntas komma inför valet.

96. Series 5: Empires of Iran

Persia was the first great superpower. The empire built by Cyrus, Darius, Xerxes and the rest of the Achaemenids stretched from India in the east to the Mediterranean in the west, from Russia in the north to the Gulf of Oman in the south. It laid the foundation for empires of the future. It was destroyed by Alexander the Great, but Iran has risen many times since. In this series we'll look at the ancient Persian empire, but also their successors; the Sassanians, who fought against Rome, in a vast war that eventually led to the Rise of Islam; then the Saffavids, during whose rule Shi'ism took root in Iran; and we'll end with the Iranian Revolution and the way it laid the foundations for political islam and much of the politics that drives the Middle-east today.

312: Reagan, Iran-Contra and the Cold War

Warmonger or nuclear disarmer? Ronald Reagan’s presidency survived an assassination attempt, the AIDS epidemic and the Iranian hostage crisis. He powered through the 1980s, creating his own truth and narrative, in a series of events that read like a Hollywood screenplay.  Tom and Dominic take a look at the impact of Reagan's presidency, the enduring effects of his politics, and why none of the scandals that scarred his time in office led to his downfall.
