After six months of war, Iran has become more confident in its ability to attack targets in the Middle East and appears determined to continue the conflict to exasperate the United States.

In the coming weeks, Iran could return to attacking American military bases in the Middle East or carry out hybrid warfare. The 007s believe Iranian-linked hackers were most likely responsible for cyberattacks on more than 100 water systems across the United States in late July.
