摘　　要：The rivalry between Iran and Israel has intensified over the past decades.Iran has continuously expanded its involvement across the region,which has led to a‘balance of terror’between the two countries.Various incidents of confrontation have occurred between the two countries in the Red Sea and East of Africa since 2010s.The Iranian regime,has been expanding its strategic depth into various regions,including Africa.Different Iranian administra-tions have adopted distinct policies in their term,that are influ-enced by various factors.The relations between Iran and East African countries have been transactional and facilitated by Iran’s effort to provide various forms of financial and military assistance in exchange for friendly diplomatic relations and ability to influ-ence African leaders’attitude towards the West and its allies,par-ticularly Israel.This paper reviews the history of involvement of the two countries in these regions,and analyses how policies of con-frontation in both countries have changed and developed over the different historical periods.The paper will have a particular focus on post-2005,because there is compelling evidence indicating a substantial expansion of Iran’s engagement in these regions.
