History

Historical Context

The 1979 Iranian Revolution replaced the pro-Israel Pahlavi monarchy with an anti-Western Islamic Republic, severing diplomatic ties with the U.S. and altering regional dynamics. This shift fueled Iran's support for militant groups against Israel, leading to ongoing tensions. In 2023, the Gaza conflict intensified these hostilities, resulting in over 56,000 deaths and highlighting the urgent need for effective mediation in the region.
