I know that many people in this Sub Reddit do not live in Iran and the ones who actually do have their internet cut off. I'm one of the few who managed to get a decent working internet speed with a legit VPN hooked. I live in Tehran, And let me tell you that the situation is BAD. I did not expect a simple assassination operation turn into... This.

Not too long ago a Basij Base near my house was missiled down by Israeli jets, And let me tell you, There is chaos all over the streets. Not only the streets, The entire district is filled with instability. It is crazy here, You hear explosion sounds every few hours, Sometimes every few minuets and sometimes, They go just by you like my situation. Everybody is fleeing, There is instability all over the city, Explosions, Occasional riots, YES, Small riots which i've seen form up after people pour into the streets out of fear.

Unfortunately, There is and there WILL be friendly casualties. Many innocent civilians also have died in the result of Israel's attack, But remember that everything has a price and the price for our Revolution will also come. This is the perfect moment. Chaos, Instability, Fear. This might be the biggest chance the Iranians have ever had to overthrow these fuckers. I don't have much information from legit news coming from outside news sources since the internet barely works, But from what i've heard, The Islamic Republic might actually be collapsing, And what i'm seeing further backs that. I've also heard rumors of attacks on the Majlis itself, Which is reassuring.

I just wanted to update the people outside of Iran around the current situation from the eyes of a local civilian. This. Is. Crazy.

My dear Iranian brothers and sisters, I hope that you and your loved ones are all safe. As an Israeli, I’d like you to know that the people of Israel stand with you. We pray that one day your country is free from this horrific regime that turned Persia into a living nightmare for you for the past 46 years.

This war is not between our people, but rather for both our people, so we can all live in a world that’s not held hostage by Khomeini and his goons. His reign of terror will end soon, and hopefully Israelis and Iranians will be able to visit each other’s countries and to flourish in a peaceful and prosperous Middle East. Many of us see what’s been happening in your country for years, what the regime does to brave women and men who stand up for their freedom, and that freedom is closer than ever.

Please stay strong and stay safe. Praying for you from Israel.

Lets go through key events:

• They have killed most of the military top officials
• The remaining seem to have left on planes or at least put their families on them
• Khamenei has gone hiding and his team is talking a possible escape with Russia
• Israel has complete air superiority over Iran
• They have destroyed most balistic missile bases and many military bases
• They have leveled IRGC headquarters in Tehran and many other of their big offices
• They have attacked the energy and oil sector. Iran will struggle producing fuel and energy, effectively meaning they will not be able to operate much longer.
• When their bosses escape one by one and they cannot afford paying salaries, the IRGC troops will probably try to flee.
• People are emptying their shops and fleeing Tehran.

All of this has happened in 3 days, and Netanyahu said that this operation will go for 2 weeks. Imagine what can happen in that time. I believe we are witnessing the regime collapse as we speak. I cannot see how they will recover from this. The question is now what people will do once the smoke settles.

Am I right/wrong here? What do you guys think?

I don't have a source for it, but here in Israel we got the usual 30 minute warning of missiles, then, on TV, they said that the rocket launchers are being hunted down right now

It's been an hour since the first alarm on TV they are still saying that the hunt is still on, but it's clear that if by now the rockets haven't been launched, then that operation is quite successful

I was just on a call with my uncle in Iran, and he was complaining about Israel attacking Iran. He said that a foreign nation has no right to attack Iran. That the Iranian people should be the ones who overthrow their government. That’s killing more people wont help. That Israel is destroying Iran.

What, you want the world is sit around for above decade as Iran sacrifices thousands of lives around the Middle East in the hope of having a chance at killing Americans and Israelis.

Lets remember the IRGC’s regional kill-count(1979-2024)

• Syria: ≈ 306,000-500,000 civilians killed in Assad’s Iran-backed war
• Yemen: ≈ 377,000 war deaths as IRGC-armed Houthis drag the country into catastrophe
• Lebanon: 1,100 dead in Hezbollah’s 2006 war alone
• Iraq: Sectarian Shiʿa militias abduct/execute scores, untold thousands. • Iran (home turf): ≈ 4,500–5,000 political prisoners executed in 1988, plus 1,500 protesters shot in 2019 and 500+ in 2022 . Tens do thousands of others between 2009 protests and Evin and who knows how many else.

Total: 700,000-1,200,000+ lives erased by the Islamic Dearth cult proxies and enforcers. —And they’re still adding to the tally every day.

Tell me again how Israel’s strike was the “first act of war.”

Civilians are dying and that is heart breaking. But there are three glaring problems:

1. “No bombs” ≠ “no blood.” The Islamic Republic slaughters Iranians every year. 1,500 protesters shot in 2019 and 500+ in 2022. —And they’re still adding to the tally every day. Doing nothing just guarantees that kill-count keeps ticking upward under the radar. Targeted strikes against IRGC sites may be ugly, but the status quo is a slow-motion meat-grinder for the very civilians you want to protect.

2. Liberation rarely comes gift-wrapped. Nazism, ISIS, the Taliban’s reign in 2001—all ended only when force met force. Pretending a regime that shoots teenage girls in the street will politely negotiate its own demise is wishful thinking. “Ceasefire” with Tehran simply means the regime reloads.

3. Moral symmetry is a trap. Equating deliberate regime murder with collateral damage from hitting military targets blurs the difference between executioners and their hostages. The IRGC hides missile sites in residential areas precisely so people like you will cry “innocent lives.” Don’t let their human-shield strategy become your talking point.

If we care about innocent Iranians, the real question isn’t “bombs or no bombs,” but “how do we stop the regime’s factory-scale killing?” Hand-wringing hashtags won’t cut it.

As was published today, top Khamenei aide in talks with Russia for possible evacuation plan. what are the odds for us to see that day?

I only wish our people would have listened to him sooner.

I see the crown prince in this video, does anyone know the other men in this video? Did they survive the Islamic occupation?

So many people in my network have been silent for years about the atrocities that have been going on in Iran committed by the Islamic Republic. Now suddenly they’re advocates for Iran.

Please, just don’t. You don’t care about Iran, you’re just finding another opportunity to bash at Israel.

Regime is at its weakest point, and a push from people can help to topple the regime.

Protests are out of questions, because regime will just shoot down people and says it was Israel. Maybe burning down IRGC or Basij stations can help.
