Breaking News! Significant shift in action against Iran: Large number of repressive forces killed, paving the way for popular revolt

The war between Iran and the US-Israel coalition has shifted from large-scale air strikes against missile bases and air force facilities to precision drone strikes against the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and Basij street forces. This shift marks a new phase in the conflict, aimed at dismantling the regime's internal repressive mechanisms and creating conditions for potential domestic unrest.
Pro-regime media outlets such as Fars News and international sources such as Iran International have confirmed these attacks.
Since the outbreak of the war on 28 February 2026, the U.S.-Israel coalition has destroyed 80-90% of Iran's missile and drone capabilities, focusing on strategic targets such as the Esfahan missile complex and the Ahvaz drone base.
From early March, the focus shifted to the Basij resistance bases in Tehran, with at least 11-12 bases damaged, including facilities responsible for social control such as Karbala and Malik Ashtar.
At night of 11 March 2026, this new phase became even more pronounced: small suicide drones launched precision strikes against street checkpoints, vehicles, and patrols in Tehran.
Fars News reports that these "terrorist attacks" have resulted in the deaths of at least 10 Basij or security personnel. Locations include near Mahalati Road in District 14, opposite a gas station in Hashemabad in District 15, Fadaiyan-e Islam Street in District 16, and the end of Artesh Avenue in District 1.
Witnesses and opposition sources describe the explosions: motorcycles and Hilux trucks were hit, casualties were high, and hospitals were overwhelmed.
This strategic shift is clear: to reduce the regime's effectiveness in suppressing potential protests by weakening the IRGC/Basij's street control.
Think tank analysis points out that earlier military de-escalation has significantly reduced Iran's retaliatory capabilities, and the current grassroots strikes could incite internal instability. Although Iran continues to retaliate with missile launches against Gulf states, its capabilities are severely limited.
Currently, explosions continue in Tehran, checkpoints are paralyzed, but no large-scale uprising has occurred. The regime is strengthening its deployment and issuing stern threats. Multiple media outlets have unanimously confirmed the direction of the incident: pro-regime sources acknowledged casualties and characterized it as "terrorism," while international and opposition reports indicated higher figures and shared videos from the scene. This new phase highlights the shift by the US and Israel from purely military action to a hybrid approach of disintegration, aimed at undermining the Iranian regime from within. The situation is rapidly evolving and requires close monitoring.
