The reported buildup comes as large-scale urban military exercises are being conducted in Tehran Province. At the same time, the Fatemiyoun militia, an IRGC-backed group composed primarily of Afghan Shiite fighters, has been conducting its own military drills, according to local sources.

An increase in the number of Fatemiyoun fighters has also reportedly been observed in areas near the Afghan border, as well as at the IRGC’s Salman Base in the city of Rask.

According to local reports, around 60 Afghan fighters have been transferred to the Salman Base, where they have undergone specialized training and are being prepared for urban combat and security operations.
