and send hundreds of thousands of anti-government messages.
So-called "Resistance Units" associated with the People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran (MEK) conducted an extensive operation, planned months in advance, in which they controlled and took down over 5,000 closed-circuit cameras installed at government centers, other key sites and in Tehran's streets, according to the MEK.
The offices of Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, President Ebrahim Raisi, the Ministry of Intelligence and Security, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and the State Security Force Command use and have access to the security cameras, which are controlled at a headquarters in Tehran's Municipality.
The network of cameras has been used to identify and detain protesters demonstrating against the Islamist regime as part of its surveillance and suppression of the Iranian people.
Anti-government protests have erupted across Iran in recent weeks. The rising cost of food and other staples earlier this month sparked sporadic unrest in several Iranian provinces. The demonstrations quickly turned political, with protesters decrying the regime – in many cases calling for its downfall – in addition to the higher prices.
