According to the documents, obtained by the network of the <a href=\"https:\/\/english.mojahedin.org\/a-primer-on-the-history-of-the-peoples-mojahedin-organization-of-iran\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">People&#8217;s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI\/MEK)<\/a> from within the regime\u2019s security apparatus, the mass killings witnessed during the January 2026 protests were the execution of a standing order\u2014a specific, escalating strategy of suppression personally approved by Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei years in advance.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">The &#8220;Four-Stage&#8221; Directive<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">At a press conference in Washington, D.C., the NCRI exposed a directive issued by the Supreme National Security Council, classified &#8220;top secret&#8221; and dated March 3, 2021. The document codifies four escalating levels of &#8220;law enforcement and security conditions,&#8221; dictating precisely how the state apparatus would respond to dissent.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The directive outlines a transition of command designed to militarize the streets rapidly. In initial stages, authority rests with the national police (FARAJA), supported by the Intelligence Ministry (MOIS) and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dni.gov\/nctc\/terrorist_groups\/irgc.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps<\/a> (IRGC). However, the documents specify that once the situation is designated an &#8220;armed security situation,&#8221; full operational command shifts entirely to the IRGC.<\/p>\n<div class=\"lyte-wrapper\" title=\"PRESS BRIEFING: NCRI-US to Expose Iran Regime&rsquo;s Pre-Planned Orders behind Jan.

On this date, the regime moved from police containment to military suppression, granting the IRGC a green light to utilize lethal force against unarmed civilians.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Furthermore, the documents dispel the notion that internet blackouts during the uprising were ad-hoc technical failures. The directives explicitly command the Ministry of Communications to implement &#8220;internet restrictions,&#8221; including full shutdowns, once specific security thresholds are met. The goal, as outlined in the 2021 order, was to isolate protestors and prevent real-time evidence of the crackdown from reaching the international community.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;This Directive by the National Security Council was obtained by the network in Iran of the MEK, which has access to sources within the regime,&#8221; said Alireza Jafarzadeh, Deputy Director of the NCRI Washington office. &#8220;These documents show&#8230; clear operational plans allocated to the IRGC to use lethal force to kill as many people as needed to stay in power.&#8221;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\ud83d\udea8Leaked documents expose Khamenei&#39;s secret deadly blueprint for crushing <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Iran?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Iran<\/a> protests <\/p>\n<p>The 129-page &#39;Comprehensive Security Plan of Tehran&#39; identifies the opposition MEK &amp; family members of executed dissidents as &#39;level number one&#39; enemies.  <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/MD9mMqeO3G\">https:\/\/t.co\/MD9mMqeO3G<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/FoxNews?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#FoxNews<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/neMjHKI9vh\">pic.twitter.com\/neMjHKI9vh<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Ali Safavi (@amsafavi) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/amsafavi\/status\/2018946176737833265?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 4, 2026<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Pre-Emptive Targeting and Surveillance<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The leaked files also included a 129-page dossier titled &#8220;Comprehensive Security Plan of Tehran,&#8221; compiled in the fall of 2024 by the IRGC\u2019s Sarallah Headquarters. This document confirms that the regime had been mapping out a suppression strategy months before the January 2026 uprising began.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Sarallah plan details the systematic identification of &#8220;high-risk&#8221; citizens. It specifically categorizes members of the opposition MEK and the families of previously executed dissidents as &#8220;level number one&#8221; enemies. The strategy called for extensive surveillance of these individuals to preemptively neutralize the organized core of any potential uprising.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Despite an audio recording from April 2025\u2014also released by the NCRI\u2014in which the Intelligence Minister boasted to senior officials that all potential threats had been neutralized, the scope of the January protests suggests a massive intelligence failure regarding the public\u2019s resolve.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;This was not panic. This was a plan,&#8221; Jafarzadeh told reporters. &#8220;They anticipated a national uprising \u2014 and prepared to crush it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NCRIUS?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@NCRIUS<\/a> has compiled a list of 2,257 protesters \u2014 including 152 children \u2014 killed in the Iranian regime\u2019s brutal crackdown last month. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/7t5JrrzeGh\">pic.twitter.com\/7t5JrrzeGh<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Caitlin Doornbos (@CaitlinDoornbos) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CaitlinDoornbos\/status\/2018705168309620899?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 3, 2026<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Anatomy of the Massacre<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The application of Khamenei\u2019s blueprint resulted in devastation across more than 400 cities and 31 provinces. The protests, initially sparked by soaring inflation, currency collapse, and fuel price hikes, rapidly morphed into a political revolution with chants of &#8220;Death to Khamenei&#8221; and &#8220;Death to the dictator.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Iranian Resistance has verified the identities of at least 2,257 protesters murdered by the regime\u2019s security forces during the crackdown, though the actual toll is much higher. Among the confirmed dead are 150 children and 245 women.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The tactics deployed went beyond crowd control. The regime forces fired indiscriminately into crowds with live ammunition and heavy machine guns. In a particularly cruel bureaucratic twist, the NCRI reported that grieving families were forced to pay the state for the bullets used to kill their loved ones before reclaiming the bodies.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In addition to brute force, the regime engaged in psychological operations. The leaked information revealed that plainclothes agents were embedded within protest crowds. Their orders were to disrupt anti-Khamenei chants by redirecting slogans toward pro-monarchy rhetoric, a tactic designed to fracture the opposition\u2019s unity and confuse the public messaging.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\u25b6\ufe0f <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/FoxNews?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#FoxNews<\/a>: Leaked documents expose Khamenei&#39;s secret deadly blueprint for crushing Iran protests<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/nAbd04b0dy\">https:\/\/t.co\/nAbd04b0dy<\/a><br \/>&quot;This Directive\u00a0by the National Security Council was\u00a0obtained by the network in Iran of the MEK, which has access to sources within the regime,&quot; he [NCRI-US\u2026 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/fMSIwyvHkZ\">pic.twitter.com\/fMSIwyvHkZ<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; NCRI-U.S. Rep Office (@NCRIUS) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NCRIUS\/status\/2018897261023940629?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 4, 2026<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">A Turning Point in Legitimacy<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The documents indicate that while the regime succeeded in killing thousands, the &#8220;blueprint&#8221; failed to secure the stability Khamenei sought. The sheer scale of the uprising\u2014reaching Kurdish, Baluchi, and Azeri regions, and involving the temporary seizure of neighborhoods by unarmed residents\u2014demonstrates a population that has moved beyond fear.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Jafarzadeh argued that the documents prove the regime views its own population as an existential threat to be managed through military force rather than governance. The leaked audio and the Sarallah plan show a regime deeply paranoid about the organized resistance, specifically <a href=\"https:\/\/english.mojahedin.org\/pmoi-resistance-units\/\" target=\"_blank\"
