Iran's Revolutionary Guards are reportedly reducing the deployment of their senior officers in Syria in response to a series of lethal alleged Israeli strikes. This marks a significant shift as the Guards, present in Syria for a decade to support President Bashar Assad, have faced intensified attacks since December, resulting in the deaths of several members, including a top intelligence general. The decision to withdraw senior officers is driven, in part, by Iran's reluctance to become directly involved in the escalating conflict across the Middle East.
