According to a single unverified report, Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) is setting up covert cells in Iraq to launch attacks against Gulf states. No independent corroboration or operational details are yet available.
A single unverified Telegram report claims the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) is establishing secret cells in Iraq to conduct attacks against Gulf states. The report provides no details on the cells' size, location, targets, or operational timeline. This claim surfaces amid a broader backdrop of direct IRGC threats to Gulf states, including reported missile launches at Riyadh, warnings to states hosting US bases, and recent confrontations with US naval forces. The Zioneer assesses this as an unattributed claim from a single source — consistent with a pattern of escalating IRGC threats and proxy activity, but lacking substantiation. No official confirmation or additional independent reporting is available at this time.
