On May 29, an Iranian dissident group known as “GhyamSarnegouni,” or “Rise to Overthrow” in Farsi, announced it had taken down several websites and servers affiliated with the Iranian regime’s presidency. During this operation, the group published numerous classified documents, shedding light on different dark aspects of Iran’s ruling theocracy, laying bare its vulnerabilities. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The group also successfully bypassed the regime’s digital security measures and replaced photos depicting Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and President Ebrahim Raisi with images of Massoud Rajavi, the leader of the Iranian Resistance, and Maryam Rajavi<\/a>, the President-elect of the Iranian opposition coalition National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI). Additionally, on various websites, the defaced images of Khamenei and Raisi were symbols of opposition and disagreement.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The dates of the documents obtained and released by the group indicate that the targeted servers have been infiltrated on numerous events, confirming the endeavor was not a one-time event.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Among many documents obtained and released by this group is a letter by Raisi to Ali Shamkhani, the <\/span>recently ousted<\/span><\/a> Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council (SNSC). While there were many speculations concerning Shamkhani\u2019s removal from the regime\u2019s highest security position, the letter confirms that he was removed from this position amid the rising infightings in the clerical regime.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In this letter, Raisi criticizes Shamkhani for giving only \u201cdescriptive and analytical\u201d reports about the nationwide Iran protests that erupted in September, adding that the regime\u2019s SNSC is expected to offer \u201cmeta-analysis and solution and action to solve problems.\u201d\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Raisi also lashes out at Shamkhani for countering Khamenei\u2019s narrative that the popular protests were \u201csmall incidents provoked by the enemy.\u201d\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cBriefly, the Supreme Leader’s meta-analysis of the recent riots was that \u2018the country was on the path of progress and overcoming obstacles in the last year. The enemy understood that the sanctions did not stop us, so they turned to chaos. If the secretariat accepts this analysis, why did it fail to notice anything in the numerous reports it has submitted, and why is there is no hint reflecting this view?\u201d the letter reads.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The letter also questions the SNSC\u2019s reports on the situation while acknowledging that \u201cin addition to the initial intelligence surprise of September 23, in particular the events of October 26, as well as the strikes and riots on November 15, 16, and 17, no prediction and prevention were made, and the analysis was based only on general and imprecise estimates and calls in the social media.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t
