Iran is fortifying key locations, including the nuclear site at Pickaxe Mountain, and its rebuilt ballistic missile factories, against the threat of renewed war.

Female Commander of Iran’s Basij Militia Is Shot Dead Outside Her Home – Second Female Official Assassinated in Sistan and Baluchestan This Week
Who was Afsaneh Aqila?
Afsaneh Aqila was the commander of the Shahideh Afzal women’s Basij unit in Mehrestan County of Iran.
She wasn’t just a woman; she was a devil in the guise of a woman.
She detained dozens of Iranian women during the anti-regime protests, and these women were subsequently killed.
Justice prevails.
This radical woman was the enemy of thousands of Iranian women who wanted to live their lives freely with dignity. Iranian women were dragged from their homes for participating in the anti-regime movement by Afsaneh Aqila, subsequently, some were sentenced to death, others were imprisoned, and the whereabouts of hundreds of women remain unknown to this day.
Commander of the Basij female voluntary forces shot dead outside her home on Wednesday.
The Iranian people are revolting.
Mehr News Agency reported:
Afsaneh Aghila, the commender of a Basij center in Mehrestan County in Sistan and Baluchestan in southeast Iran was assassinated by terrorists who were affiliated with the US and Zionist Regime on Wednesday, local Iranian media reported.
The local Iranian media’s reports said that she was assassinated at the frontdoor of her house.
