Faced with a highly contested transition of power to Mojtaba Khamenei and a surge of state-sanctioned executions intended to paralyze the public with fear, the <a href=\"https:\/\/english.mojahedin.org\/pmoi-resistance-units\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MEK Resistance Units<\/a> launched a massive, nationwide counter-offensive. Driven by outrage over the execution of 26-year-old Resistance Units member Mehdi Khanaki and coinciding with major political anniversaries\u2014including Operation Eternal Light and the 1988 massacre\u2014these clandestine actions spanned dozens of urban centers. The widespread operations systematically shattered the state\u2019s projection of absolute control, proving that a sophisticated and deeply entrenched revolutionary momentum continues to challenge the fundamental survival of the clerical dictatorship.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">July 31, 2026<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In the southeastern city of Zahedan, MEK Resistance Units resumed their weekly public activities, defying the regime&#8217;s pervasive apparatus of execution and suppression. Marking the anniversary of the 1988 massacre of more than 30,000 political prisoners, activists took to public spaces despite intense threats from state security forces to hold placards declaring that the massacre marked the beginning of an ongoing struggle intertwining society&#8217;s destiny with freedom. Highlighting statements from Maryam Rajavi that the slaughter of political prisoners was a bloody clash between the Middle Ages and the generation of tomorrow, the activists emphasized that the regime of massacre will ultimately be overthrown to establish a democratic republic. The units directly challenged the current wave of executions\u2014including <a href=\"https:\/\/en.iranntv.com\/iran-executes-pmoi-member-mehdi-khanaki-as-crackdown-on-political-prisoners-intensifies\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MEK member Mehdi Khanaki<\/a> and two protesters in Isfahan\u2014asserting that state killings only demonstrate the ongoing uprising of the people against religious fascism.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Simay Azadi Exclusive \ud83d\udea8 PMOI Resistance Units Report 60 Operations Across Iran<\/p>\n<p>On July 28, 2026, the group said its units targeted IRGC Basij bases and burned banners bearing officials\u2019 images.

In a desperate bid to project an aura of invincibility and enforce an unquestioned transition of power to Mojtaba Khamenei, the clerical establishment has leaned heavily into a campaign of terror, marked by surging state executions. However, this doctrine of fear has spectacularly backfired. Rather than paralyzing the populace, the executions of figures like Mehdi Khanaki, Behrouz Ehsani, and Mehdi Hassani have served as a powerful catalyst, galvanizing <a href=\"https:\/\/english.mojahedin.org\/pmoi-resistance-units\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">underground Resistance Units<\/a> to carry out sixty coordinated strikes against hard regime targets. Ultimately, this relentless wave of nationwide defiance lays bare the regime&#8217;s internal deadlock: a decaying dictatorship backed into a corner, terrified by its own citizens, and confronting an organized revolutionary generation determined to establish a democratic republic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An extraordinary wave of underground defiance and coordinated anti-regime operations swept across Iran during the week of July 27&ndash;August 2, 2026, piercing the clerical regime&rsquo;s extensive security apparatus and revealing a deepening political crisis for the ruling clerics.
