In the name of God
An explanatory joint statement by Iran’s Intelligence Ministry and the Intelligence Organization of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC)
On US regime’s interventions in Iran’s recent riots
With condolences over the martyrdom of a group of compatriots in the shrine of Ahmad bin Musa (AS) and the martyrs for the country’s security, and supplicating prayers before God for the elevation of those martyrs, patience, and reward for their grieving survivors, and the full and speedy recovery of the injured and those affected by the terrorist incident in the holy shrine, and along with a pledge of heartfelt allegiance to those martyrs and to God Almighty to pursue comprehensive, accurate and rigorous information until the discovery and punishment of the entire perpetrators of this barbaric crime and their supporters at any time and in any place, we hereby bring to the attention of the noble Iranian nation that information and explanations were provided with regard to some aspects of the recent riots in an explanatory statement on September 30. Now, by obtaining new reliable information, as well as by removing the protection and security restrictions from parts of the existing data, we will provide further details for the information of the magnanimous people of Islamic Iran, and in this regard, it is deemed necessary to explain three points in advance:
First, in the current statement, the reliability of data and their documentation have been especially emphasized. Therefore, every effort has been made to present the information obtained from various intelligence methods in here.
Second, based on the available information, it has been established that preparations, ground setting, and also an important part of the executive operations of the recent riots were designed by foreign spy services in the form of a package and implemented in different ways inside the country through some groups and networks related to them. On the other hand, there is another important fact that in their recent operations, these services have tried to exploit some of the existing grievances in society, and even as much as possible, base their information projects on the misuse of such issues.
Third, accurate and continuous intelligence observations over the past year, as well as available documentation from the recent riots and information obtained from the enemy's scenarios for the post-crisis phase, bear many examples and undeniable references to the comprehensive role of the terrorist American regime in the design, implementation, and continuation of the aforementioned imbroglio. Therefore, the basic focus of the present statement is on the role of the American mafia regime, its allies, and their infantry in the latest riots across the country in three stages, including before, during, and after the unrest.....More Below
The overthrow of PM Sheikh Hasina in 2024 was funded by USAID and Clinton family money, Mohibul Hasan Chowdhury told RT
The unwillingness of Bangladesh to condemn Russia over the Ukraine conflict was one of the reasons the US wanted to oust Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, former cabinet minister and chief negotiator Mohibul Hasan Chowdhury has said in an interview with RT.
Hasina, who led Bangladesh for 15 years, fled the country in August 2024, following weeks of violent student-led protests which claimed 700 lives, according to some estimates.
Chowdhury, who served as the country’s shipping minister, was at the heart of negotiations between the authorities in Dhaka and demonstrators during the crisis. The country has been led by an interim government since then, which pledged to hold an election in 2026.
Chowdhury told RT in an exclusive interview to be aired on Monday that the uprising was instigated by NGOs linked to the US Agency for International Development (USAID) and the ...
The fighting in southern Lebanon marks the collapse of a fragile truce – and could redraw the region’s balance of power
On Thursday, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) launched a series of coordinated strikes on Hezbollah infrastructure in southern Lebanon. According to Israeli sources, the strikes targeted weapons depots, command centers, and communication systems used by militants to coordinate their activities along the border area.
Before the operation began, the IDF issued warnings urging residents of several towns to leave areas that could come under fire. The Israeli military emphasized that its actions were aimed solely at military targets but did not rule out the possibility of expanding the operation if provocations from Hezbollah continued.
West Jerusalem accuses Hezbollah of violating ceasefire terms and attempting to rebuild its military capabilities. Just days earlier, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated that Hezbollah was taking steps to regroup and ...
A recent report has revealed that Paramount Global, an American multinational mass media and entertainment conglomerate, maintains an internal blacklist of entertainment figures it labels “anti-Semitic,” applying the term to any artist who supports Palestine or denounces Israel’s ongoing genocide in Gaza.
Variety magazine reported on Tuesday that Paramount’s new CEO, David Ellison, has moved to sever ties with all pro-Palestine or anti-Israel movements.
To that end, the company has dismissed executives critical of Israel and refuses to collaborate with any artist or public figure who views the occupying regime’s actions in Gaza as genocidal.
In a statement released on Friday, Paramount said it “disagreed with recent efforts to boycott Israeli filmmakers,” claiming that “silencing individual creative artists does not promote better understanding or advance the cause of peace.”
The statement came after Film Workers for Palestine, supported by over 4,000 international ...
