Between diplomacy and military mobilisation: Tehran gives its government negotiating powers and expands volunteer centres

Tehran, Iran ·

Iran's president announced that the government has been given negotiating powers with Washington to end the war, as training centres for volunteers are being expanded to face threats from Israel and the United States.

The Basij volunteer force operates under Iran's Revolutionary Guards, and the Strait of Hormuz, a key route for Gulf oil exports, has become a focus of the confrontation with Washington.
