The emergence of the Hadid-110 (also referenced in documentation as the Dalahu) unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) marks a structural shift in the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Aerospace Force’s drone warfare doctrine.

A familiar pattern emerged this week in Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei’s Iran. Mohammad Bagher Kharrazi, brother of the wife of Mojtaba’s brother Masoud, claimed in a revealing interview that President Masoud Pezeshkian had offered to resign 28 times. 

The situation, according to Kharrazi, has become so fraught that Mojtaba lashed out at Pezeshkian, saying, “[I]f he resigns one more time, I will approve it. I will write ‘approved’ underneath it, and that will be the end of it.”
