Rioters Vandalize Public, Private Properties in Iran
Tasnim News Agency ^ | January 9, 2026 | staff

TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Violent rioters favoring monarchy vandalized public and private properties in a number of cities across Iran on Thursday night, inflicting injuries on ordinary people and security forces.

The violent unrest that erupted in a number of Iranian cities on Thursday night caused damages to the government buildings, private shops, and even mosques.

The rioters backing monarchy vandalized public properties, blocked streets, attacked the administrative buildings and Police stations, and injured a number of security and law enforcement forces.

In remarks on Friday morning, Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei said the vandals have destroyed the buildings of their own country in Tehran and the other cities in order to appease the US president.

β€œThe US president has the blood of more than 1,000 Iranians on his hands,” the Leader said, adding that Donald Trump has confessed that he had ordered attacks during the 12-day war in June 2025 that claimed the lives of over 1,000 Iranians, including military commanders, scientists and ordinary people.

The Leader lashed out at a bunch of unaware people that have been deceived by the US president and have set the garbage cans ablaze to please Trump.

Ayatollah Khamenei made it clear that the Islamic Republic, which has come into being with the sacrifices made by several hundreds of thousands of noble people, will never back off in the face of vandals or tolerate mercenary attitudes towards outsiders.

When a person becomes a mercenary and serves the outsiders, that person will be rejected by the Islamic nation and establishment, the Leader stated.

Ayatollah Khamenei also called on the youth of Iran to preserve preparedness, unity and presence in the scene, stressing that a unified and integrated nation will overcome all enemies.

Tehran, meet Portland.

I guess it's just a universal truth - some of any riot are just anarchists who care less about the "cause" than the opportunity to be anarchists.

Some are predicting the regime will go into mass slaughter mode this weekend, making a lesson for the dissidents to ponder. Desperate, cornered self righteous theocrats have no regard for others’ lives. Same with the Jim Jones or other massacre types.

LOL. Did the state have Tucker Carlson host this newscast? The reason mosques are being targeted is because the IRGC stores ammunition and weapons in mosques, just like Hezbollah does.

I saw this info about TC on the PBD podcast and everyone was puzzled why the regime would broadcast this.

I havent seen the broadcast personally .

Remember when TC went antisemite?

I think this regime took up on that

Why wouldn’t they burn mosques? And government buildings. I’d burn them too. They want to be free. They’re tired of getting their zzz beat for not wearing a head scarf. If they want the Shah back that’s their business.

Tasnim News Agency: Rioters Vandalize Public, Private Properties in Iran

Hummm, the only thing I have seen the Iranian (Persian) demonstrators vandalize is some sacks of rice, nothing else.

Could it be that the Tasnim News Agency is the Ayatollah Disinformation and Gaslight Service?

Yup. The mullahs Pravda.

That’s the impression I get. Basically propaganda and gaslighting.

Nice objective news source! IRGC’s own little News Agency. As reliable as the Gaza Health Ministry!

They are sending many large Russian Cargo Planes to Moscow supposedly now. This is what Assad did two days before he bugged out.
