Iran, Turkey and Saudi Arabia Eye Strategic Alliance Against Israel
Tehran: To counteract rising tensions in the Middle East and counter Israel's influence, Iran, Turkey, and Saudi Arabia are now preparing for a new strategic alliance. If this alliance is formed, it could create a major upheaval in regional politics and directly challenge Israel's growing military power.
Iran has initiated efforts to bring Turkey on board for this alliance. According to the Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA), Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian and Foreign Minister are in constant contact with senior Turkish leaders. Iran is also attempting to rebuild trust with Saudi Arabia through diplomatic talks and economic partnerships.
According to sources, the three countries are discussing a new framework for regional stability and security.

It is being said that Iran is planning to take advantage of this situation and establish an Islamic Defense Alliance.
