Ten killed as Israeli drones target paramilitary posts in Tehran
12 March 2026 13:54
At least 10 “law enforcement defenders” were killed in Israeli drone strikes targeting Basij and Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) checkpoints across Tehran, Fars News reports.
The checkpoints, dispersed throughout the Iranian capital, are operated by the IRGC and the Basij, a volunteer paramilitary organization responsible for upholding Islamic morality and supporting the regime.
Basij volunteers often come from poor, conservative families and are guided by ideological motivations. They are frequently deployed on the front lines to suppress internal unrest, including during protests earlier this year.
