The media outlets of the Iranian regime’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) and its terrorist Quds Force have released false reports accusing the Iranian opposition group, People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK), of attacking a school in Ahvaz, southwest Iran, with homemade mortars.
An MEK spokesperson denied these allegations. “The MEK have neither fired homemade mortar rounds in Ahvaz, nor have they targeted a school, and nothing has hit a residential home near a claimed school.”
The MEK spokesperson further stated that these false reports are a response to an ongoing campaign by the youth across the country, attacking the IRGC and the regime’s crackdown apparatus, including the regime’s Foreign Ministry websites and applications, revealing the regime’s criminal secrets.
One of the leaked documents from the Foreign Ministry states that the Political Committee held six meetings from January 9, 2019, to February 4, 2021, aimed at confronting the MEK.
The report of the second session of the Foreign Ministry meeting aimed at confronting the MEK reads in part: “The [MEK] have intelligence capabilities and power. Among their other capabilities are recruiting and establishing contact with certain individuals and political figures in Europe. The [MEK] can inflict political, economic, and prestige blows to the Islamic Republic of Iran to a certain point that when it comes to sanctions, they have been very active in identifying the country’s elements that are involved in bypassing sanctions… they must be considered a serious threat.”
The report of the third session reads in part: “The [MEK], in contrast to the monarchists, have unity and organized ranks and files. The [MEK] have also announced that they are seeking to overthrow [the regime] by establishing Resistance Units. The [MEK] are not an alternative, yet they are the only organization that has an agenda to be an alternative. Therefore, the [MEK] are both a dissident group [seeking to overthrow the regime], an alternative, and very persistent… in general, the [MEK] have certain capabilities, including collecting intelligence, centralized leadership, economic and social abilities.”
