RUMINT: Iran big turbans moving their families to underground tunnels, anticipating renewed attacks from Israel and U.S.
2026-04-21
Hattip 3dc:


… microwaves, and large quantities of food supplies, have been observed moving through mountainous regions of Iran, heading toward heavily fortified bunkers.

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) stated that these movements are precautionary, aimed at ensuring the safety of families amid rising tensions and the threat of potential strikes.
Meanwhile, Israel is reportedly preparing up to 150 fighter jets as part of a possible large-scale operation targeting Iran in the coming days, should the ceasefire collapse.

Sources suggest that Israel may act unilaterally, potentially launching strikes on Tehran without prior coordination with Donald Trump.

Reports also indicate that while IRGC personnel remain sheltered underground, civilians including women and children are being mobilized on the surface for protests, raising concerns over their safety as tensions escalate.🇮🇷
