而美以对伊朗继续的军事打击和伊朗民众发对派能否占起来没有关系。关键是统治国内的准军事组织

Key actors and methods involved in depressing the 2026 protests included:

• Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei: Directly denounced protesters as "rioters" and "terrorists" ordering security forces to "put them in their place".
• Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC): Played a primary role in the violent suppression, utilizing live ammunition, heavy machine guns, and shotguns against protesters.
• Security and Police Forces: FARAJA (Law Enforcement Command) and other armed units enforced strict night curfews, engaged in mass arrests—including of children—and targeted protesters with lethal force.
• Judiciary: Head of the Judiciary Gholamhossein Mohseni-Eje'i ordered "no leniency" for protesters, expediting trials and issuing death sentences for those labeled as "waging war against God" (moharebeh).
• Internet Shutdowns: Authorities cut internet access starting around January 8, 2026, to hide the scale of the violence, which included reports of thousands of deaths and injuries.
• Foreign Militias: Reports indicated the deployment of Iraqi Popular Mobilization Forces and other regional mercenaries to assist in suppressing the unrest.
