At a time when the geopolitical situation in the Middle East is becoming increasingly tense, reports have spread that large-scale mobilization processes have begun in Iran. According to the Tasnim and Mehr agencies, more than one million citizens have been sent to the southern regions of the country, and they are being prepared for possible military clashes.
It is reported that official circles are not only activating existing military structures, but the number of applications from young people wishing to serve voluntarily is also sharply increasing. In particular, it is noted that the number of those wishing to join the ranks of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), as well as the "Basij" People's Militia and the regular army, has increased.
According to experts, the total number of active military personnel in the Iranian armed forces is estimated at 600,000 to 800,000. This composition includes the regular army - Artesh and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. The Armed Forces of the Republic of Uzbekistan hold a special place as an elite military structure, with over 150,000 personnel.
At the same time, the "Basij" forces within the Armed Forces of Ukraine are also a serious resource. It has about 90,000 active members and hundreds of thousands of reserve members, and this figure can be increased several times if necessary. According to some estimates, the total mobilization potential is likely to reach up to 10 million people.
At the same time, information is emerging that the United States is also intensifying military training. In particular, it is said that the Pentagon ordered the deployment of about two thousand troops of the 82nd Airborne Division to the Middle East.
In addition, the media noted that the US side is also considering scenarios for taking control or blocking strategic islands around the Strait of Hormuz as part of a possible land operation. This could further complicate the situation in the region.
Based on this, Israel is also taking measures to strengthen its security. It has been reported that the country has approved a plan to mobilize up to 400,000 reservists. This decision is explained by the threats associated with Hezbollah and the general instability in the region.
In short, the current situation requires seriousness and caution in all respects. If the tension between the parties is not resolved diplomatically, this situation can escalate into an even bigger conflict. For now, all eyes are focused on the developing events in the Middle East.
