BREAKING 5: IDF has also confirmed assassinations of Basij national leader and his deputy who wer hiding in a tent to avoid attacks on their HQs. The Basij are possibly the worst. Literally hooligans hired for 1 purpose: to beat and kill their own people.

Amir Tsarfati news feed about 47 minutes ago:

The IDF elimanted Ali Larijani - the de facto leader of the Iranian terror regime
The IDF announces that yesterday, March 17, 2026, the Israeli Air Force, acting on IDF intelligence, and through the integration of unique operational capabilities, conducted a precise strike that eliminated Ali Larijani, the Secretary of Iranian Supreme National Security Council, who operated as the de facto leader of the Iranian terror regime. The strike was conducted while he was located near Tehran.Throughout the years, Larijani was considered one of the most veteran and senior figures within the Iranian regime leadership, and was a close associate of the Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.Following the elimination of Khamenei, Larijani consolidated his status as the de facto leader of the Iranian regime and led the combat efforts against the State of Israel and countries across the region.As a part of his role, Larijani led the regime’s national-security coordination and directed its international activity, including engagement with members of the axis.During the most recent wave of protests against the Iranian terror regime, Larijani advanced violent enforcement measures and repression operations, and personally oversaw the massacre that was carried out against Iranian protestors. His elimination adds to the elimination of dozens of senior commanders and leaders of the Iranian terror regime, who were eliminated by the IDF during Operation Roaring Lion, and constitutes a further blow to the Iranian regime’s abilities to manage and coordinate hostile activity against the State of Israel.

Ali Larijani has reported to be eliminated as well.

[Pete Dovgan]

Why do they call it “assignation”
In the headline. Its war, Iran started it 47 years ago and hasn’t stopped.

[quilterdebbie]

I love good news in the morning!

[Sirius Lee]

…real good! Any more volunteers wanna step up to the plate?

[Celtic Conservative]

So much for them bomb-proof tents.

What we know about the Basij, the shadowy paramilitary volunteers arresting and killing civilians in Iran’s protest crackdown.

What is the Basij?
Established in 1979 as Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini called for a “20 million army” to defend the revolution, in 1981 it was incorporated into the Revolutionary Guard (IRGC), which Australia listed as a state sponsor of terrorism last year.
Initially, its members were deployed in the Iran-Iraq War, suffering heavy casualties as they were used in human wave attacks designed to overwhelm enemy troops and minefields through sheer weight of numbers.
Reports vary as to whether the organisation was disbanded following the war and revived in later decades or continued uninterrupted, but the ultimate outcome is the same: today, the Basij is predominantly focused on domestic societal control.
Estimates on the number of members vary.
In 2022, when the Basij was involved in the crackdown on the protests in the wake of Mahsa Amini’s death, Reuters put the figure at 1 million active members, and potentially millions more overall volunteers.

How does the Basij respond to protests?
According to the US-based thinktank the Institute for the Study of War (ISW), the Basij is one of three Iranian organisations typically tasked with restraining protests, alongside the Law Enforcement Command (LEC) – the country’s national police force – and the wider IRGC.
The paramilitary force was particularly noticeable in the response to protests over the 2009 presidential election, as well as in major demonstrations in both 2017-18 and 2022.
During the latter, an Amnesty International report detailed how Basij agents disguised themselves in the crowds, before breaking cover to assault protesters with batons, stun guns and rifle butts, and arrest them.
That Amnesty report also outlined how sexual violence was used by Iranian security forces, including the Basij.

Agents repeatedly took [a protester] and the other women into different rooms for 15-30 minutes at a time to rape them and then throw them out into the hall in a degrading manner when they had finished with them,” a mental health worker who treated several survivors said in the report.
“She said the rape was systematic, that it was very clear they knew what they were doing, as if they had planned this,” the health worker added.

(HOW TO IDENTIFY A BASIJ?
History News Network. June 22, 2009.
The basij are a mixture youth movement (like the infamous Hitler youth) and thugs.

Good riddance

[BlueStateRightist]

If true regarding the tents in the desert, it means the Israeli spies are everywhere.

[OKSooner]

They’ll NEVER find me out here in the middle of nowhere.

[MeneMeneTekelUpharsin]

Well done (in both ways).

[Hot Tabasco]

Lots of job openings in Iran these days....

[fuzzylogic]

I’d guess the Basij are also the biggest cowards too - tough when the regime was behind them, squealing p*ssies otherwise.

And, from Amir Tsarfati news feed:


IDF Chief of Staff: "In recent days, foreign elements connected to the Palestinian arena have been eliminated in Iran"
These are senior figures involved in terrorist activities from Gaza and Judea and Samaria, who were hiding in a safe house.

These people all need to be identified and dealt with. The do-gooders who think they’re entitled to due process will make consolidation of power impossible. History dictates that they must all be killed in a quick and ruthless manner. The new rulers will be forgiven as long as it doesn’t drag on.

[SMARTY]

A ‘tent’??? Hmmmm... must’s been one of these

[Palio di Siena]

Basij forces number an estimated 175,000.
That’s on top of the Iranian army which is estimated at 600,000.

[Maskot]

I noticed that first off as well… But they’ll call the absolute assassination of Charlie Kirk anything but
