The rebellious youth attacked the headquarters of the Greater Tehran Protection Corps in Ishratabad, located in the heart of Tehran, leading to heavy explosions in the area.
The barracks, known as Wali Asr, houses not only the command headquarters of the Revolutionary Guards, named after Mohammad Rasulullah, but also several other IRGC commanders. These include the operational command of the northeastern areas of Tehran, known as the Nasr camp, the Basij organization of the Revolutionary Guards, the Basij district command of the 7th district of Tehran (Motahari), the Fatehin Basij Airborne Battalion, and the security unit known as Sahib al-Zaman.
In critical conditions and during social upheavals, all the military and security forces of northeast Tehran fall under the command of the Nasr operational command. The Sahib Al-Zaman security unit is responsible for nine Imam Ali Suppression Battalions and two IRGC Rangers Battalions.
The primary mission of the Greater Tehran Protection Corps is to manage social unrest and uprisings, suppress protests and demonstrations, apprehend and detain demonstrators, and interrogate and torture those arrested in solitary confinement cells.
