Multiple news outlets and aggregators report a missile strike on the Expediency Discernment Council Secretariat in Tehran, sparking intense polarization and militant rhetoric in public Telegram channels.
According to the state-aligned Iranian news aggregator آخرین خبر, which cited the Iranian news outlet Tabnak, a missile has struck the building of the Expediency Discernment Council Secretariat located in the Mirdamad neighborhood of Tehran.
This report was echoed by the Saudi-owned network العربیه فارسی, which also attributed the news to Tabnak. The Saudi-backed channel frequently highlights anti-regime developments and provides a counter-narrative to Iranian state media. Further amplification occurred across popular regional news aggregators like اخبارفوری خبرفوری جنگ امریکا فوری and کافه سیاست 🖤, broadly confirming the strike on the Mirdamad facility.
In the unmoderated comment section of the گروه خبر فوری chat group, which hosts raw and highly polarized public discourse, the news ignited fierce reactions. Anti-regime users openly celebrated the attacks. One user declared that the filthy mullah must be wiped off the face of the earth. Another message aggressively chanted death to the diarrheal republic while openly cursing Khomeini and Khamenei.
One extensive and highly militant anti-regime post warned the freedom-seeking people of Iran to stay in their homes until further notice. The post claimed that the US Army, Israel, and Mossad will now begin systematically targeting all repressive terrorist forces, police, security, and IRGC members, explicitly threatening to send these bastards along with their families to hell.
Conversely, pro-regime loyalists expressed deep mourning and defiance in the same chat. One user wept for the Leader 😭😭😭💔💔, while another defiant supporter asserted that the Islamic Republic will rule for another 40 years, continuing the path of their dear Leader.
Amidst the localized chaos regarding Tehran, unverified reports were also shared by users in the chat claiming explosions in Doha, Qatar, and Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, suggesting fears or rumors of a broader regional military escalation.
The source material features extremely polarized and visceral user comments from an unmoderated chat, showcasing the stark divide between pro-regime loyalists mourning leadership figures and anti-regime citizens celebrating the strikes. Claims of explosions in Qatar and the UAE are present but appear completely unverified and unsourced within the provided text.
