The Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting aired several programs on Friday in which hosts appeared in studio segments holding rifles and demonstrating the use of light weapons. The hosts in these programs stated that they would join the fight if necessary. These programs, which aired in at least three segments, were republished in domestic media and received reactions on social networks. Some social media users described these segments as a sign of mobilization in wartime conditions.
American political commentator Jackson Hinkle wrote on the social media platform X that Iran's state television is showcasing how to use and fire a Kalashnikov as "preparation for a ground invasion by the U.S."
