As military tensions in the region reach critical levels, the operational landscape is shifting rapidly.

Recent events have demonstrated that the military infrastructure of the Iranian regime -- specifically assets controlled by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and its affiliates -- is being actively subjected to highly coordinated precision strikes.

While the stated objective of these military operations is strictly to dismantle the regime's capacity for war, the reality of kinetic conflict requires immediate civilian vigilance.

To ensure your safety and the survival of your families, it is imperative that you distance yourselves from all regime military sites immediately.

Recognizing the danger zones

The primary targets in this conflict are not civilian neighborhoods, public infrastructure or the Iranian people.

The strikes are meticulously aimed at the regime's tools of coercion and asymmetric warfare.

These designated targets include:

• IRGC and Basij headquarters: Command and control centers, administrative bases and localized Basij outposts.

• Missile and UAV facilities: Silos, launch pads, storage depots and manufacturing plants for ballistic missiles and drones.

• Sensory and defense networks: Radar installations, early warning systems and air defense batteries.

• Munitions depots: Warehouses and underground bunkers used to store explosives and weaponry.

If you live, work or commute near any of these facilities, you are currently in a zone of extreme, elevated risk.

The threat of the "human shield" strategy

For decades, the IRGC has employed a deliberate strategy of embedding its military assets within or adjacent to densely populated civilian areas.

By placing Basij outposts in residential neighborhoods, concealing weapons caches near commercial districts and positioning radar equipment near public roads, the regime intentionally attempts to use the Iranian public as human shields.

This cynical tactic places you in grave danger.

Even with the use of advanced precision-guided munitions designed to minimize collateral damage, the sheer force of these strikes -- combined with the high probability of massive secondary explosions from targeted weapons depots -- creates a deadly blast radius that can devastate nearby civilian structures.

Actionable steps for your protection

Your physical safety and the protection of your loved ones must be your absolute priority.

You cannot rely on the regime to safeguard your well-being.

Take proactive measures immediately:

1. Identify and avoid: Mentally map out the IRGC bases, Basij centers and suspected military sites in your city or neighborhood.

Alter your daily commute to avoid passing near these locations.

2. Relocate if necessary: If your residence is immediately adjacent to a known military installation, air defense site or radar station, strongly consider relocating temporarily to the homes of friends or family in safer, purely residential areas.

3. Beware of secondary blasts: If a strike occurs in your city, do not approach the blast site out of curiosity.

Munitions depots often experience delayed, secondary explosions that are far more lethal than the initial strike.

Stay indoors, away from windows and seek interior shelter.

The US military clearly distinguishes between the Iranian people, who have suffered greatly under the current economy, and the military apparatus of the regime.

These precision strikes are aimed squarely at the IRGC’s machinery of war. However, proximity to this machinery is now a matter of life and death.

Please exercise extreme caution, prioritize your family's security and stay away from all regime military installations.
