Israel’s Persian-language military spokesman says Basij operatives who once terrorized Iranians are now fleeing and hiding as Israeli aircraft move freely above Tehran.
The IDF’s Persian-language spokesperson issued a sharp message following reported strikes on Basij positions in Iran, saying the same agents who carried out brutal repression against their own people are now disappearing in fear. According to the statement, Israeli aircraft are operating freely over Tehran’s streets and targeting Basij agents along with their checkpoint positions.
The message framed the sound of Israeli aircraft overhead as a symbol of changing realities inside the Iranian capital. It said the streets are being cleared of violence, and that the fear once imposed on the Iranian people has now shifted onto the Basij terror apparatus itself. The statement is meant to underline both Israel’s operational freedom and the psychological blow being dealt to one of the regime’s most feared instruments of internal repression.
NEWSRAEL: IN A NUTSHELL:
Israel is signaling that its strikes are not only damaging regime-linked forces physically, but also breaking the aura of fear that the Basij used for years to control the Iranian public.
