Examining the Economic Dimensions of Future Confrontation with the Islamic Republic on Israel’s Channel 14

Israel's Channel 14 has reported on the outlook for confrontation with the Islamic Republic following the conclusion of the military phase of hostilities. In the program, Ariel Idan hosted Micha Avni, an entrepreneur and research fellow at the ICGS Institute, to discuss the economic dimensions of this standoff. According to the report, while the significant phase of direct military conflict has ended, the confrontation with Tehran remains far from resolved. The analysis presented suggests that the United States is intensifying pressure through targeted sanctions against banks and nations that assist the regime. Conversely, Tehran continues to utilize its leverage, including control over the Strait of Hormuz and influence over the global oil market, to counter these pressures.
