Iranian opposition media report that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) is exploiting widespread power outages to move missiles and heavy equipment to strategic locations across Iran, according to a single unverified report. The deputy CEO of Tehran's Electric Company earlier advised residents to use an app to track the outages. The claim could not be independently confirmed.
A single unverified report from Iranian opposition media claims that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) is using the cover of nationwide power outages to transport missiles and heavy equipment to strategic positions across Iran. The report provides no specific locations or details on the scale of the movement. The power outages, which the deputy CEO of Tehran's Electric Company described as part of a planned schedule, have been a source of public frustration. The Zioneer has previously reported on IRGC military activities, including the activation of electronic warfare systems along Iran's coastline and the declaration of combat readiness amid US strikes in southern Iran, though these are not directly linked to the current report. This latest claim cannot be independently verified and is based on a single opposition source.
