Ayatollah Khamenei directs IRGC to maintain high alert status

The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) is on high alert, following orders from Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei as protests continue for the fourteenth day. Khamenei reportedly trusts the IRGC more than other military forces, fearing potential defections. Demonstrators are increasingly targeting government officials, leading to fatalities, including law enforcement personnel. Additionally, concerns over U.S. intervention, driven by President Trump’s threats, have heightened fears of an “apocalyptic” conflict.
