    Regarding the internal coup attempt, yes. There are mass arrests of these foreign agents being carried throughout these days.

    As for the external threat of an attack, that has not ended yet.

      The external attack is a direct result of the coup failing.

      The US realized the coup has failed, and it’s running out of time to confront China, so it’s lashing out even more.

      I also imagine Israel is rattled to the core, now that the coup failed and there’s a good chance Iran is going to retaliate in some way sooner or later.

        Frankly I doubt Iran will react unless directly provoked by an attack besides maybe an intelligence leak for Israel or capturing a tanker that flies another countries flag but is obviously working with the west.

        If/when the US starts a continuation of the 12-day war, that’s when I’d expect Iran to retaliate.
