Basij militia forces have launched widespread patrol operations across the streets of Tehran, the Iranian capital. Operative Information Center-OMM reports that the information was released by the Fars news agency.
According to official reports, the militia forces have commenced activities in all 22 districts of Tehran. This mobilization coincides with recent military and political developments in the region, with authorities stating that the patrols are intended to maintain security and order at all strategic points throughout the capital.
The Basij, a paramilitary volunteer militia established in 1979, operates under the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). The organization plays a significant role in Iran's internal security apparatus and is frequently deployed during periods of heightened domestic or regional instability. The current deployment comes at a time of increased geopolitical friction involving various regional actors and international powers, including the United States and Israel.
