Today, Iranian opposition leader and son of the former Shah, Reza Pahlavi, made a strong statement about the imminent fall of the Islamic Republic.

According to him, Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has lost control of the country and gone into hiding, while the regime’s repressive apparatus is collapsing.

Pahlavi described the developments as irreversible and called on Iranians to take to the streets in all cities — from Bandar Abbas to Tabriz — to end the “46-year war of the regime against the people.”

He assured that after a change of power, Iran would avoid chaos: a plan is already in place for the first 100 days of the transition period and the formation of a democratic government.

In his address to the military and security forces, Pahlavi urged them not to defend a dying regime but to side with the people and take a constructive role in the country's future.

Earlier, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed the people of Iran, announcing the start of a large-scale military operation against facilities linked to the country's nuclear program.

He reported the elimination of key figures of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and scientific centers, accusing the Iranian leadership of posing a threat to Israel.

In conclusion, he expressed support for the Iranian opposition movement, calling on citizens to fight for freedom.
