The war on Iran: Nobody won, everyone paid

On the 40th day of the war between the US and Iran, a ceasefire was accepted, brokered by Pakistan, allowing safe passage for ships through the Strait of Hormuz. This conflict, born from Israel's strategic doctrine post-October 7, 2023, was not justified by specific acts of Iranian aggression. The US provided military capacity, while Israel offered strategic rationale, without a UN Security Council mandate.
