Hey fam! Big news from Tehran: Iran's Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) just announced it smashed an "anti-security" network allegedly led by US and Israeli intel services. 🔥
This group, made up of "deceived individuals and traitors," was supposedly set up by Israel after the mid-June conflict to stir up chaos in Iran between November 6 and December 21. The IRGC says they arrested members in coordinated raids across several provinces.
Quick recap of that mid-June showdown: On June 13, Israel launched surprise air raids on Iran's nuclear and military sites. Iran answered with waves of missile and drone attacks on Israel. Then on June 22, US forces hit Iran's Natanz, Fordow, and Isfahan nuclear sites. A ceasefire took effect on June 24.
Now, the IRGC intel unit views Israel as "the US proxy" in West Asia and claims this network was all about wrecking public security after what it calls Israel's "military failure" in June. 🤔
Why it matters for us in South and Southeast Asia: We're watching how major powers play chess in West Asia—because shifts in oil supply, trade routes, and regional alliances can ripple all the way to Colombo, Jakarta, and Bangkok. Stay tuned as the situation unfolds!
