Exiled Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi has released a video message urging Iranians to stockpile essentials, continue strikes, and await his 'final call' as the nation enters a sensitive phase of its struggle.
Exiled Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi has issued a stark video address to the Iranian people, instructing them to prepare for an imminent turning point in anti-regime action. The message was widely circulated on March 11 across major opposition-leaning diaspora media, gathering over 112,000 combined views across monitored Telegram channels.
According to Vahid Online, a prominent opposition-aligned citizen journalism channel, Pahlavi opened his address by declaring: "My dear compatriots, we are now in a very sensitive stage of our final struggle." He instructed citizens to immediately stockpile necessary goods and prioritize their physical safety. "I ask you to procure your essential needs as soon as possible, and for your own safety leave the streets and stay in your homes," Pahlavi stated. He further urged the public to "continue to strike and do not show up to work," while calling on them to maintain their "nightly chants with strength" as a display of national unity.
The broadcast also included a direct ultimatum to the Islamic Republic's military and police personnel. As reported by Iran International, a widely viewed foreign-based opposition news network, the Crown Prince demanded that state security forces defect, stating: "This is the last opportunity to separate yourselves from the repressive forces and join the people."
The complete statement was also amplified by Iranncorg (the National Council of Iran), a pro-monarchy political umbrella group. Their publication echoed Pahlavi's closing directive, which instructed citizens and defecting forces alike to wait in their homes for his "final call."
The coverage reflects a highly coordinated messaging push across multiple opposition networks. The translation faithfully captures the explicitly revolutionary and urgent tone of the address, including heavily loaded terminology like 'repressive forces' and 'final struggle', which are central to the exiled opposition's current framing of events.
