#مسمومیت_دانشآموزان

It's unclear why--if foreign actors are indeed behind ongoing poisonings--the regime has not deployed the surveillance and security capabilities that it used to violently suppress protests during the #Mahsa_Amini movement to protect Iranian girls. (3)
NEW | The #Iranian regime will likely keep the mandatory hijab law but look for new, and perhaps more effective, ways to enforce it rather than using the morality patrol. Read CTP and @TheStudyofWar’s full update here:

Yesterday, #Iran Intl TV which is supposed to be an opposition media published an article written by pro-#IRGC Morteza AbbasZadeh (#Morteza313 or Azim or Azematt) but under a fake name.They used a nickname for him to hide the fact that he is anti-#Saudi & a #Basij militiaman!
The article written by Morteza Abbas Zadeh is full of disinformation. For example he has falsely represented Tondar-69 ballistic missiles as HQ-2J SAM system. It is highly possible that he has written it on order of #IRGC in-order to cover-up the security scandal in #Natanz!
Here are tweets of Morteza Abbas-Zadeh against #SaudiArabia in support of #Houthi rebels in #Yemen. It is sad to see @IranIntl which is being funded by #SaudiArabia is promoting someone who supports #IRGC & writes against #KSA!
There is No difference between #Basij terrorists & #ISIL! #IRGC's Basiji militiamen attacked Jewish Tomb of Esther and Mordechai in #Hamedan yesterday & the Christian graveyard of #Eslamshahr today. There is No difference among #Iran's Islamic Regime (#Jaesh) & #Daesh!
