The Donald Trump administration has identified priority military targets within the country while discussing possible military strike options against Iran.
Modern.az reports that, according to the "Daily Mail" publication, the non-governmental organization "United Against Nuclear Iran" (UANI), which operates in Washington and takes a stance against nuclear armament, prepared a dossier covering 50 facilities located in Iran and presented it to White House representatives on Monday morning, ahead of key national security consultations.
The document claims that the list of targets includes the exact coordinates of the central command post of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, located in Tehran and known as the “Tarallah” headquarters. According to UANI's claim, this headquarters is considered the main operational center for suppressing protests and effectively coordinates the activities of police forces.
The dossier also mentions four subordinate headquarters controlling various regions of Tehran. The “Quds” headquarters is responsible for the northern and northwestern parts of the capital, the “Fath” headquarters for the southwest, the “Nasr” headquarters for the northeast, and the “Qadr” headquarters for the southeastern and central districts.
UANI believes that the identification of these facilities allows for an understanding of how the Corps coordinates the forces involved in suppressing protests. According to Kasra Aarabi, Director of Research on the IRGC at the organization, unless the balance of power between unarmed protesters and a fully armed repressive apparatus changes, the period of protests and violence will continue.
The document also refers to a clandestine infrastructure allegedly existing in Tehran. It is stated that this network serves to manage the regime's most radicalized structures – intelligence, police, and psychological operations units.
The list of targets also includes 23 regional “Basij” bases located in Tehran's 22 municipal districts. The “Basij” is known as an internal paramilitary formation of the IRGC and is considered one of the key institutions playing a major role in suppressing protests.
The White House did not respond to the publication's request for comment regarding the dossier.
The UANI document also lists other units alleged to play a key role in violence against protesters. These include the “Aal-e Mohammad” security brigade located in northeastern Tehran and the “Al-Zahra” brigade operating in the southeastern part of the capital.
Against this backdrop, it is reported that the number of deaths during the protests has exceeded two thousand, and thousands of people may face the threat of execution. In this situation, the Trump administration has demonstrated that the period of diplomatic patience has ended. The President announced that he had canceled all meetings with Iranian officials, conveyed the message to protesters that “help is on the way,” and asked them to remember the names of “the murderers and executioners.”
