The past 12 months have seen stunning reverses for both Russia and for Iran’s ‘Axis of Resistance’ in the Middle East. Rebels humiliated Putin in Syria and Israel devastated Iranian proxies such has Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon – albeit it at appalling human cost. Is the region finally turning a corner?

RUSI fellow Jason Pack of the Disorder podcast explains connects the threads of a crucial period for the region.  • Support us on Patreon for early episodes and more. • We are sponsored by Indeed.
