DESCRIPTION

Iran is losing the war with the United States and Israel — badly. Its supreme leader is dead, its military infrastructure is in ruins, and its air defenses have been no match for the relentless bombardment. And yet, Iran still hasn't cried uncle. In this Reporter Extra, Vox senior correspondent Joshua Keating explains how Iran may be fighting a very different kind of war — one it doesn't need to win outright. It just needs to outlast Trump's willingness to keep fighting.
