Resistance Units Warn Against Fuel Price Hikes<\/h2>\n

Iran\u2019s Resistance Units<\/a>, affiliated with the People\u2019s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI\/MEK<\/a>), and rebellious youth reportedly carried out 60 operations on Thursday, August 27.<\/p>\n

The activities took place across 27 cities and areas in Iran. They targeted centers linked to the regime\u2019s repressive apparatus, including IRGC<\/a> and Basij<\/a> bases.<\/p>\n

The operations came with a clear warning:<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you raise prices, all of Iran will turn into hell and fire as it did in 2019.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

According to the report, the message targeted the regime\u2019s plans to raise gasoline and fuel prices. The Resistance Units warned that such measures would further burden Iran\u2019s people.<\/p>\n

The reported operations took place in Tehran, Karaj, Mashhad, Kermanshah, Shiraz, Zahedan, Chabahar, Arak, Dezful,<\/strong> and other cities<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

A Warning to the Supreme Leader\u2019s Regime<\/h2>\n

The activities also targeted institutions linked to the Supreme Leader and the regime\u2019s financial networks.<\/p>\n

In Tehran, Resistance Units<\/a> reportedly targeted the headquarters of the Supreme Leader\u2019s representative in the Hajj and Pilgrimage organization with Molotov cocktails.<\/p>\n

The report describes the organization as a major channel of financial corruption. It alleges that the institution takes money from pilgrims and citizens and directs revenues toward the regime\u2019s propaganda and security apparatus.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, in Mashhad, an explosion reportedly shook the District 6 Municipality building.<\/p>\n

According to the report, the regime had turned the building into an operations center. It allegedly used the site to mobilize IRGC forces and Basij militias against protesters.<\/p>\n

IRGC and Basij Bases Targeted<\/h2>\n

The reported activities also focused on IRGC and Basij bases in several cities.<\/p>\n

In Karaj, Shadegan, and Dezful<\/strong>, the Resistance Units reportedly targeted Basij bases with incendiary devices.<\/p>\n

These bases are used for repressive patrols and security operations, according to the report.<\/p>\n

In Iranshahr and Kermanshah<\/strong>, Resistance Units reportedly targeted Basij headquarters and student Basij centers.<\/p>\n

The report says the regime uses these student centers to monitor young people and suppress student activities.<\/p>\n

Similarly, Resistance Units reportedly targeted security and intelligence centers in Borazjan and Borujen<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

According to the report, these centers help security forces pursue activists and suppress protests.<\/p>\n

In Borujen, the reported activities were accompanied by chants of:<\/p>\n

\u201cHail to Rajavi! Death to the principle of Velayat-e Faqih.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Resistance Units Target Surveillance Networks<\/h2>\n

In Chabahar, rebellious youth reportedly targeted facilities linked to the regime\u2019s surveillance networks.<\/p>\n

The city is located in Sistan and Baluchestan Province.<\/p>\n

According to the report, the targets included facilities linked to the Ministry of Intelligence and informant networks affiliated with the IRGC Basij.<\/p>\n

The report says these networks monitor members of the Baluch community. It also alleges that they help security forces pursue dissidents and facilitate arrests.<\/p>\n

Ideological Centers Also Targeted<\/h2>\n

The reported operations also targeted ideological centers in Mashhad and Kermanshah.<\/p>\n

Resistance Units reportedly used explosions and incendiary bottles against these centers.<\/p>\n

According to the report, such institutions provide ideological support for the regime\u2019s repression.<\/p>\n

The report also accuses them of justifying executions, discrimination against women, property confiscations, and policies that deepen poverty.<\/p>\n

Burning Regime Propaganda<\/h2>\n

Resistance Units and rebellious youth also reportedly burned regime propaganda banners and murals.<\/p>\n

The activities targeted images of Ali Khamenei<\/a>, Mojtaba Khamenei, Ruhollah Khomeini, and other regime figures.<\/p>\n

In Mashhad, Shiraz, Zahedan, Saravan, Sarbaz, and Kermanshah<\/strong>, banners featuring regime leaders were reportedly set on fire.<\/p>\n

In Sarbaz, the activities were accompanied by the chant:<\/p>\n

\u201cDeath to the oppressor, be it the Shah<\/a> or the Supreme Leader<\/a>.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

In Zabol<\/strong>, banners and images of regime President Masoud Pezeshkian<\/a> were reportedly burned.<\/p>\n

The report presents the action as a rejection of reformist claims within the regime.<\/p>\n

Rejecting the Regime\u2019s Regional Proxies<\/h2>\n

The reported activities also targeted images of Qassem Soleimani<\/a> and Iraqi militia commander Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis.<\/p>\n

The banners were reportedly burned in Tehran, Shiraz, Semirom, Saveh, Dezful, and Arak.<\/p>\n

The activities included slogans such as:<\/p>\n

\u201cDeath to Khamenei! Long live the National Liberation Army of Iran! Hail to Rajavi.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Warning Against Another Fuel Price Shock<\/h2>\n

The 60 reported operations delivered a broader warning to the regime.<\/p>\n

According to the report, any new increase in gasoline and fuel prices could trigger another nationwide uprising.<\/p>\n

The report recalls Iran\u2019s November 2019 uprising. That uprising began after the regime sharply increased gasoline prices.<\/p>\n

The Resistance Units say the regime cannot solve its financial problems by imposing further pressure on the people.<\/p>\n

Instead, the report calls for an end to systematic poverty and the recovery of Iran\u2019s national wealth.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo to the Shah, No to the Mullahs\u201d<\/h2>\n

The Iranian Resistance continues to emphasize its position against both the former monarchy and the current clerical regime.<\/p>\n

Its stated position is summarized in the slogan:<\/p>\n

\u201cNo to the Shah, no to the mullahs.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

According to the report, the Iranian people seek neither a return to the former monarchy nor the continuation of the clerical dictatorship.<\/p>\n

Instead, the Iranian Resistance calls for a democratic republic.<\/p>\n

It says Iran\u2019s wealth should serve its people and their freedom.<\/p>\n
