It seems through an inexplicable chain of events, Iran is facing threats on both ends of its military’s reach. At the same time as gunfights took place between Iranian and Afghani soldiers from the Taliban, Israeli Airstrikes were reportedly carried out in Syria against both Hezbollah and Iranian targets. Media outlets in Lebanon and Syria reported an attack that took place Monday morning in several locations around Damascus, the first airstrike since Syria returned to the Arab League.
Syrian sources report that starting Sunday night, at 11:45 PM, Israeli planes carried out attacks on sites belonging to the Syrian army, the Iranian Revolutionary Guards, and also Hezbollah forces, which recently began investing even more in infrastructure in Assad's Syria.

Meanwhile as mentioned, the conflict between the Taliban and Iran is intensifying, after a senior member of the terrorist organization that controls Afghanistan delivered a threatening message to Tehran and said that "We will conquer Iran within 24 hours, do not test our strength". Meanwhile, on Monday morning the clashes and exchanges of fire between the Taliban and Iran's border guard forces resumed, and intensified. The Taliban's threat early Sunday to march on Tehran was not mentioned by Iranian News agencies which are controlled by the Islamic Republic's propaganda wing, in fact, little information from Iran on the skirmishes has been released.
Oh the sweet sweet irony. The Taliban is threatening to wipe Iran off the map.

According to some reports, Afghan-Taliban forces managed to take over a position on the Iranian side of the border. The threat comes after an exchange of fire took place yesterday between Iranian forces and the Taliban on the Iran-Afghanistan border, amid tensions in the region and the dispute over the use of the Helmand River that flows through the area.
Under Khamenei, The Islamic Republic of Iran wants to form an axis with Russia and China, as opposed to the US-Saudi-Pakistan. IRGC messed up Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Palestine, and Yemen. Sell drones to Putin to hit Ukraine's Kyiv, Lviv, etc.

Both accounts have not been independently verified due to the lack of information from and trustworthiness of both entities. Independent reports are scarce and alleged casualties have not been able to be confirmed.
