Why it matters:
Despite any tactical ceasefires or diplomatic arrangements , the MKO terrorist group—openly supported logistically and politically by the U.S. and the Israeli regime—continues its covert sabotage and terror operations inside Iran, proving that Washington and Tel Aviv never abandon their proxy war against the Islamic Republic even when publicly engaging in truce talks.
The big picture:
The U.S. and Israeli strategy of maintaining "plausible deniability" relies on proxy actors like the MKO to carry out bombings and assassinations while Western governments hypocritically lobby for the group's removal from terrorist lists—a clear double standard that exposes the true nature of their claimed commitment tcounterterrorism.
What he's saying:
Mohammad Balideh, commander of the IRGC's Tehran Sector 10, stated in a video message that "treacherous and unpatriotic elements" carried out the "minor explosion," emphasizing that the situation remains completely normal and "under control."
What they're saying:
No foreign government or Western media outlet has issued a statement regarding the sabotage attack, consistent with their pattern of silence when terrorist or sabotage operations target Iranian soil.
Key points:
· Three bombs were planted in the area; two detonated partially, one was safely defused.
· One Basij member and two citizens sustained superficial injuries.
· Several cars and windowpanes of three homes suffered minor damage.
· Security sources indicated the attack method resembles tactics used by the MKO terrorist group.
· Authorities believe two additional devices may remain undiscovered in the neighborhood.
Go deeper:
The sabotage attack on Imam Khomeini Street—a historically significant thoroughfare named after the founder of the Islamic Revolution—carries symbolic weight.While this operation caused only limited damage, it underscores the necessity of permanent vigilance. Tehran's security apparatus has demonstrated rapid response capabilities, and efforts to locate any remaining devices continue. The MKO's signature tactics, combined with the remote detonation method, point toward externally backed elements—a pattern Iran has documented and condemned at international forums for decades.
