OFFICIAL STATEMENT April 22, 2026— IRGC Public Relations Office — Official Communiqué

By the command of the Supreme Leader and in fulfillment of our constitutional mandate, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has assumed expanded coordination responsibilities across all key state functions. The Islamic Revolution is indivisible. Its guardian is the IRGC.

بسم الله الرحمن الرحیم — In the Name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

By the direct command of Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei — may God protect him — and in full accordance with the Constitution of the Islamic Republic, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has assumed expanded coordination responsibilities across all key functions of the Islamic state.

IRGC Commander Brigadier General Ahmad Vahidi declared: 'The IRGC is not merely a military force. We are the guardians of the Islamic Revolution — its sword, its shield, and its conscience. When the nation faces its greatest challenge, it is the IRGC that stands in the breach. This is our sacred duty, and we fulfill it with pride and with the blessing of the Almighty.'

Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei addressed the nation: 'The IRGC is the iron fist of the Islamic Revolution. Its strength is Iran's strength. Its resolve is the resolve of 90 million Iranians. Trust the IRGC. Follow the IRGC. Victory belongs to those who stand with the Revolution.'

The Basij Resistance Force has been activated at full mobilization status — 300,000 fighters across all 31 provinces, ready to defend every inch of Iranian soil. The people of Iran are not spectators. They are soldiers of the Revolution.

Let the enemies of Islam understand: the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps does not retreat. It does not negotiate under duress. It does not bow to sanctions, blockades, or military threats. The Revolution is eternal, and its guardian is immortal.
