The Axis of Resistance (Persian: محور مقاومت Mehvar–e Moqâvemat;[28] Arabic: محور المقاومة Miḥwar al-Muqāwamah) is an informal Iranian-led political and military coalition in West Asia and North Africa.[29][30]

It most notably includes the Islamic Resistance in Iraq, the Syrian government, the Lebanese political party and militant group Hezbollah, the Yemeni political and military organization Ansar Allah,[b] Hamas,[c] and a variety of other Palestinian militant groups.[31][32][33]

The various actions of members of this axis reflect their domestic interests while serving the broader goal of complicating Israel's attacks and imposing a cost on the United States to support Israel.[34] The coalition is also opposed to Sunni Salafist armed groups such as al-Qaeda and ISIS.[35]
