Iranian Revolutionary Guards
The Iranian Revolutionary Guards, formally known as the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), is a branch of Iran's armed forces established after the 1979 Iranian Revolution. Tasked with protecting the Islamic Republic and its political system, the IRGC operates independently of the regular military and plays a significant role in Iran's domestic and foreign policies. It has been involved in various military operations across the Middle East and is known for its influence in supporting proxy groups, such as Hezbollah in Lebanon and various factions in Iraq and Syria. The IRGC has become a central figure in the ongoing tensions between Iran and Israel, particularly in light of recent military operations and intelligence activities attributed to the Israeli Mossad.
