Peace Restored and Terrorism Defeated: Declares Iranian Police Chief
According to the General, despite new calls for riots from external sources on Thursday night, no incidents were reported, marking it the quietest night in recent times. He highlighted that the massive pro-government rallies held on Monday showcased national unity and re-energized the security forces on the ground.
While the unrest initially began as a peaceful protest over inflation and economic struggles, authorities claim that foreign-backed saboteurs hijacked the movement to cause violence. These groups reportedly attacked public property and killed innocent citizens. The government now asserts that with the help of intelligence operations, the foreign-led conspiracy has been foiled and peace has been re-established.
