Overview:
Officially neutral since 1935, and still referred to in 1941 as “Persia”, Iran maintained friendly relations and trade with Germany. Its ruler, Rezah Shah Pahlavi, also requested from the Reich technicians for various industries. The British, very suspicious after a revolt in nearby Iraq, plotted some kind of direct action. Following “Barbarossa”, Iran offered a way to supply USSR but the Persian oil fields seemed in danger. A joint action was quickly planned with the Soviets from the north. The 8th Indian Division, based in Iraq, was the main unit involved. The invaders prepared themselves, with the oilfields of Abadan as their main objective in the south.Attacker: Indian (B Company, 1st Kumaon Rifles, 19th Hyderabad Regiment)
Defender: Iranian (6th Infantry Division)
