Esmail Qaani, successor to Qasem Soleimani as commander of the Quds Force, was killed in an Israeli strike. His mission encompassed multiple objectives, including maintaining and expanding Iran’s influence throughout the Middle East, a focus closely monitored by international intelligence agencies. A key element of this mission involved strengthening control over Iraqi Shia militias, such as Hashd al-Shaabi, to prevent the unraveling of Iran’s proxy network. This consolidation of power aimed to solidify Iran’s regional influence and further the goals of the Iranian leadership.
