Sources disclosed the intelligence unit has informed the field military command of Ahwazi Islamic Sunni Organization on the alleged war preparations of Iran. Sources said the Iranian military deployment in Ahwaz and Baluchistan areas includes the core officers of the Revolutionary Guard, Ghafeera forces (Al-Baseej) clad in civilian clothes, thousands of agents and spies to finalize the preparations. Sources revealed some high-ranking officers, who were deemed unfaithful to the Iranian spiritual leadership inside the Revolutionary Guard and military, have been terminated, while others have been transferred to other locations to avoid any form of treason.

Sources affirmed the instructions to military officials in Ahwaz (North Ahwaz, Abu Shahri and Abbas seaport) are highly confidential as Iran is allegedly gearing up for a military attack in the region. Sources stated there is growing suspicion on the activities of the Revolutionary Guard and military officials and Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khameini might soon announce something that may lead to putting the security forces on high alert. According to reports leaked by some Revolutionary Guard leaders, the announcement might be a confirmation of Iran's production of nuclear bombs - around two to four bombs - in the next 18 months or a declaration of war, which may push the regime towards a crisis graver than what it is currently facing, particularly in Ahwaz and Baluchistan. Sources added the plan will be carried out under the supervision of the leader of the special guards for Khameini (Sappah Wali Amr). These special guards are the core officers of the Revolutionary Guard and they have confirmed that Khameini is directly supervising the secret plan, sources said.
Several maps, documents and military correspondences have also been presented to the Ahwazi Islamic Sunni Organization, which opted not to reveal these documents to the public to protect the sources. These pieces of evidence allegedly confirm the intention of the Iranian military to possess all kinds of destructive armaments, including weapons of mass destruction, to implement its hidden agenda - expansion in the region, sources stated.
Sources pointed out this military includes 3.7 million servicemen: 350,000 military men and 1,050,000 Revolutionary Guard members, while Al-Baseej has about two million servicemen and others. The regime has opened many avenues for the production of weapons and military hardware since 2005. All the military and revolutionary guard reserves were called starting from February 2010 and the alert level has been increased, particularly the Iranian Military (92nd Brigade) and the strongest unit in the Revolutionary Guard in the South (7th Corp) at the occupied Ahwaz.
Sources presented more evidence on the Iranian operations and secret plans, which they categorized into two. First is the internal front, including the announcement of the Revolutionary Guard and military for residents of bigger governorates on their intention to transfer major locations to areas outside the cities, purportedly according to wish of the people. They also unveiled plans to relocate the military bases - Meshad (Kharasan), Samnan and Tabriz - to areas outside the cities in the next few months, while there are ongoing plans to divide the military locations outside the cities strategically.
According to the plan, Iran will be divided into seven zones, except for Tehran as it has been allocated for a certain strategy. Sources clarified this plan is totally different from the one laid down in 2004 as the latter did not include the Revolutionary Guard and affiliated forces like Al-Baseej. The previous plan focused only on dividing the military into four corps with four armored divisions and six infantry divisions each, whereas the current plan includes all forces in the regime under one central command - its top leadership Khameini. Sources pointed out that the recent decision of Iran to divide the country into five military zones is actually an attempt to mislead the foreign intelligence agents.
Planned Iranian zones
- Tehran
- From Azerbijan until Ahwazi Al-Tamimi City and it naturally covers all the Kurdistan areas
- The entire northern areas (southern bed of Qazween Sea)
- The big Kharasan region (before the division) and all the central areas that extend to Isfahan, Samnan and Qum.
- West Baluchistan and parts of the eastern coastal areas Ahwazi, Sheraz and Karman.
Secret geographical division for the plan, except Tehran
- Isfahan which is the Middle Command
- South Azerbijan (East and West) and transferring the central command from Tabriz to Oramia City and another transfer to Isnad in an attempt to show the Iranian plan towards the border areas.
- Kharasan (North - Middle - South) and its leadership Meshad
- Kurdistan and its leadership in Karman Shah
- Persia and its leaders in Shiraz the capital
- The occupied Ahwaz and its leadership in the capital (Al-Nassiriya), and it includes the coastal area of Ahwazi Arabian Gulf
- Baluchistan and its leadership in Zahadan City.
The southern areas have been categorized as Ahwaz and Baluchistan, which have been witnessing high security alert levels and the ‘Red' areas to decrease the alert level in Kurdistan in very strange manner shows the intention of the Iranian leadership in the southern areas.
Military Division in Ahwaz
North Ahwaz has been divided, except the eastern coastal areas from Al-Tameemi until Bab Al-Salam canal, to 14 military zones excluding the capital of Ahwaz which has been divided into two - East and West. The eastern part of the city comes under the command of Imam Al-Hussein Guard and the western part is under Imam Ali Command. The 13 military areas are as follows:
Ramiz, the seven hills (it includes Arwah), Al-Muhamra (includes Abadan and Al-Qasba), Al-Huwaizah (includes Al-Bastain), Al-Hamaidiya (includes Al-Khafajiya), Al-Tameemiya ( includes Delam seaport and Mashour), Al-Falahiya, Tastar, Suleiman Mosque, Al-Salehiya (includes Al-Qindar castle and Al-Sous), Al-Omaidiya, Behbehani, Edaj, Mulla Thani (renamed Imam Hussein Command and includes Shaiban, Al-Shabaisha and Awees.
This is part of the military preparations which started very early to facilitate the procedure for the training and military exercises and prepare the area for a wider plan. Iran has issued a decision prohibiting fishing and moving in wide square-shaped areas in the northern area of Al-Bastain City. The Midakh Mountain is bordering from the North, in the East until close to Abdulkhan City and the village Umm Al-Dabas East Al-Bastain until Jadaba village (liar) near Al-Bastain. The Revolutionary Guard supervised the implementation of the decision in September 2008, prohibiting fishing and moving in these areas until 2013 under the guise of protecting the environment.
Sources added the axis of moving by land towards the Republic of Iraq starts on the border with Iraq, which is designed by the leadership of the Revolutionary Guard in accordance with recommendations from Al-Quds Group (Baron Mirz Operations) to occupy three governorates - Mesan, Thee Qar and Al-Muthana, - in a bid to cut off Basra from Baghdad and move towards Saudi Arabia. Sources said there are huge military installations in South Al-Duwairaj River on East Al-Sous on the border with Iraq to expedite procedures for the occupation of Al-Ammara City. Sources confirmed there are other forces stationed in the highlands in South Al-Bastain to support the latter.
Axis to start operation
- First axis - Subalah (near Bastain)
- Second axis - Al-Rashidiya (15 kms away from Subalah)
- Third axis - Al-Duwairij (11 kms away from Al-Rashidiya)
- Last axis - Al-Fakkah (13 kms away from Al-Duwairij)
Importance of the Revolutionary Guard infantry
The field military command has asked Ahwaz Studies Center to look into the significance of the square axis. The center explained the square borders from the East, Northeast and South with Al-Karkha Rivers, and in the North the mountain and heights called Mashdakh Ahwaz with length of 18 kms makes the square a natural barrier due to the existence of massive forests and well-fortified mountains (its location is Command of Mashdakh Mountain), which will support any successful attack and stop any military attack.
On the Al-Isnad area and the support supplies, there are secure channels on the eastern side of Al-Karkha River and it is the railway connecting Tehran-Al-Salhiya-Al-Sous-Ahwaz-Al-Muhamasa, while Al-Sous City will be the location for infantry supplies and support.
Arrangements for the secret war
Several secret meetings were held in January 2010 at Rastam Bour Military Base - near the capital of Ahwaz. Iranian Minister of Defense and Operations Leader in South-East Military Command General Ghala Meliyan, Chief of 88 Battalion of armors in Baluchistan Brigadier General Mohamed Haqeeqat Fir, Chief of Infantry of Army General Ahmed Rida Burdistan, Chief of 7th Battalion Armor in Ahwaz Lt General Hassan Shahwar Bour, Chief of Guard in Western Area for Ahwaz Capital (Imam Ali) Colonel Abbas Mambeni, Chief of Regularity Forces for the Army in Ahwaz Capital Colonel Murtada Radi Jalali, members of the security committee for North Ahwaz, including the chairpersons of Ahwaz Capital Municipality, Public Security for the City (Shaharbani), Investigators (Akahi), Intelligence for 92nd Armored Division located in Ahwaz Capital City, Second Office in 92nd Battalion, Al-Basdaran in the city, intelligence for Basdaran, Spiritual Political Guidance Department, and several leaderships of the Revolutionary Guard and military attended the meeting .
Iran's belief on the coming wars has been designed and laid down to merge with the geography of Iraq and Arabian Gulf. Sources said participants in the meeting agreed what should be done in most of the sensitive areas in case the plan fails - the contingency plan. They presented the ‘burn land' plan and how it will be executed in both Ahwaz and Arabian Gulf where everything will be destroyed, such as destroying the bridges; burning the oil fields, refineries and sensitive installations, distributing light weapons to the settlers in Ahwaz to commit genocide against the people of Ahwaz, and eliminating the Ahwaz people in jails. They briefed the top commander of the Iranian military on the necessity of quick air transportation for the 65th Division and the 23 Corps, the so-called commandos, and the Al-Najaf second armor division in Ramshah (Isfahan).
Also, a second in-command officer has been appointed for the 7th Corp and sources identified him as Colonel Ali Hatif, while former MP - Mohamed Kiyanosh Rad Karbali has been appointed officer in charge of ammunition in case the anticipated war erupts.
On the other hand, sources have divulged important facts in the plan, particularly those concerning Iraq and Arabian Gulf, from Shahroud (Samnan Governorate) East Tehran, which is a vital military base for the space and missile program. This fully supports the nuclear program and close to the Biological Military Damghan Laboratory, the first brigade from 58 Commandos Group of the Iranian Military was relocated to another airbase (Nujah) in Hamdan in June 2009. The First Brigade is one of the most advanced groups in the military and underwent different trainings under the supervision of War Operations Group for Information, based on the geography of the Arabian Gulf and nature of Arabian armies. The group was relocated again to the vital Rastam Bour base in the occupied Ahwaz to undergo training in Arabic and how to interrogate the Arabs arrested in the war, in addition to dressing up like the Arabian armies as a camouflage.
Finally, during this year, the group was transferred for the third time to an area near the Iraqi border where the operation will allegedly start, and to be part of the team which will operate in Iraq until the Saudi border. This will enable thousands of National Guard members to enter and take control of Al-Muthana, which is a highly important military installation and to continue moving towards Saudi Arabia. Sources added the Iranian Revolutionary Guard has been working over the last five years with its supporters in Thee Qar and in Al-Muthana Governorate to prepare for cooperation.
The Revolutionary Guard carried out more than 10 secret exercises, including those limited and wide-ranging ones in the occupied Ahwaz over last months, such as the exercises of Fajr 41 at Abu Ghawair Valley East Al-Duwairej River near the Iraqi border with the participation of more than 20,000 core members of the Revolutionary Guard, in which training was conducted on occupying Al-Ammara City. Other important exercises were conducted in the presence of core Revolutionary Guard leaders towards the end of February 2010 in large areas along Al-Ameediya Road, Mashour. Sources asserted the military has been moving on the land areas near the Arabian Gulf (GCC). Khameini personally appointed Lt General Ali Hyder in April 2010 as leader of 92nd Armor Group for the military that occupy Ahwaz.
Intelligence side
Sources asserted Iran has a wide military intelligence program, which includes the use of pilot-less aircraft. In 2009, Iran transported 30 drones to Al-Qindara Airbase for the 4th Division of North Ahwaz to carry out espionage operations in the region. Sources disclosed the drones were manufactured in Russia and assembled in a military base near Isfahan. Sources added these drones were named ‘Yakofalif' after the founder.
The drones have been designed using the most advanced technology to ensure its adaptability in the geographical situation of the Arabian Gulf. It is difficult to locate these drones through the radar due to their small size and ability to fly low. Sources affirmed the drones were transported to secret locations in North Al-Bastain last year to conduct secret espionage operations in the Arabian Gulf and Iraq, such as taking pictures of military and intelligence units. Sources stated four secret locations have been specified in Ahwaz that are directly connected to the headquarters of the Revolutionary Guard and secret supply centers, which provide the pictures taken by the aircraft during the espionage operations. Sources added communications have been going on in secured military channels in Ahwaz, since January 2010, in which wire tapping and eavesdropping have been carefully avoided or minimized.
Suicide units
Sources said the 5th Division (martyrdom) - Benjamin Cardin Martyrdom - was completed in 2006, while the registration of 12,000 applicants, especially university graduates, started in 2008 for enlistment to other military suicide units. The Revolutionary Guard organized its own official suicide unit to carry out terrorist activities in the Arabian Gulf. The organization was uncovered earlier this year, while the announcement concerning formation of Al-Shehab Al-Thaqeb martyrdom division took place in January 2010 under the direct supervision and assistance of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard. This is part of Iran's preparation for the forthcoming war.
Sources pointed out there are plans to send emergency 300,000 additional soldiers from the Revolutionary Guard and military as reinforcements to the occupied Ahwaz only. The movements include prominent Iranian forces of over 20 troops and brigades from the military and Revolutionary Guard.

Movement of forces to Tehran, Baluchistan and Kurdstan
Part of 44th Brigade, independent from the Revolutionary Guard positioned in Bekhteyari, has been moved to Baluchistan. Artillery Divisions 9 and 14 of the Revolutionary Guard in Asfahan have also been moved to the same place. Part of Corp 19 of the Revolutionary Guard from Hussein Base in Sheraz has been moved to Zahdan Al-Bloushiya.

The first Brigade was based in Al-Mahmarah but it moved recently to South Al-Qasba. However, its tasks are to handle goals in Al-Fao and north of Kuwait when operations are initiated. Its job is also to open up week fronts in this zone to ease the tasks of the second marine team which is located in Al-Mahmarah. It will also push hundreds of thousands of volunteers to mobilize in a step aimed at fighting its way in front of the main forces recruited in the plan.

The main stores of weapons and the headquarters of distribution
- The secret Al-Shateer Base (Shatrah) is important for support for (Peshtebani). An on-field survey of the area was conducted through a secret central security system affiliated to the field leadership. This was done after receiving information from a reliable source. This base is well fortified because it is located underground and used as a warehouse for middle and short-range missiles as well as the Chinese M11 missiles; in addition to stores for liquefied and solid fuel needed for the missiles engines and other machines. It is also a storage depot for various types of weapons and C4 class transport planes and poisonous chemical substance.

Several missiles warheads and armed with these poisonous gases including Shehab 1 which were readied for launch two years ago. There are also a series of tunnels in this zone about 30 kms long linking the base, which is affiliated to the army, to other secret zones in the capital Ahwaz. The base is actually protected by a modern anti-aircraft system and is two kms away from the village of Khait Al-Rawwas located on Al-Snafi Road (Al-Bawayah Lands - the Iranian Tawaneer Co). It is located on Ahwaz Road, Mulla Thani.

The management of all marine forces in the diagram is under direct supervision of the Revolutionary Guard. Hundreds of anti-ship missiles have been planted all along the Arabian Gulf coast. The war preparations were done in secret and in camouflage.
The main marine bases are as follows:
- Task base is east of Bab Al-Salam Strait, whose objective is to supervise the Straits. It is the fourth base on the level of the Iranian plan priorities. It was equipped with more than 600 Russian torpedoes (M8-39). It was equipped to implement the plan to torpedo the ships and paralyze navigation in the Straits. Intensive drillings works were done at the base to accomplish the mission as fast as possible when the military operations begin. Moreover, it is supplied by remote-controlled marine missiles.
- The Mina Abbas base lies above the Bab Al-Salam Strait. Its mission is to distribute torpedoes to the area and attack the ships in the Arabian Gulf. It was equipped with some suicide torpedo boats aimed at pre-identified targets.
- The important Asoliyya marine base is located in the middle of the Arabian Gulf. Its missions are limited to cut supply lines between the west and the east sides of the Gulf.

Its support headquarter is located at the University of Marine Military Arts (Arond) in Ferdosi Street (Abu Nawwas) in Koot Al-Sheikh. Since this base has a major strategic importance in the plan, a joint leadership among ground, marine and air force is based there. This marine base is affiliated to this joint leadership that is called (Joint Stad).
- Hermiz Island marine base.
- The Military Ahwaz Serri Island is very close to the UAE. It includes a massive ground base for the Revolutionary Guard. In addition to a wide military airport, about 50 Chinese 21 MiG planes are stationed there. A source asserts that the Iranian military leadership is convinced that this type of expostulation planes is not useful in air wars. Therefore, it chose to transform them into suicide planes booby-trapped with explosives and chemicals and biological substances. These planes will target the defense, industrial and economical structures in the UAE, Qatar and Bahrain to support the troops there. Huge support forces exist in Ferro Al-Kubra Island. The huge military airport there will be used for air dropping operations in the southern part of the Arabian Gulf.
- The important marine base for the Guards is Ahwaz Khark Island, which has some support from other small islands. The source asserts that its goal is not only to target ships, but for precise military, industrial and civilian targets in Kuwait, Khafji and Al-Jubail, which is the essential responsibility of the troops there. At the same latitude lies another important military base, second for the Guard and the third important base is located on the occupied Abu Mussa Island.

Meanwhile, the Political Office of Ahwaz Islamic Sunni Organization is calling on the rulers and leaders of the Arab area for quick action to stop "the Iranian terrorism as well as to support the Ahwaz National Movement."
"An enemy such as this one which is waiting to exploit the security situations in the area should be stopped and disarmed. The political office warns the Iranian enemy that it will pay the price for threatening the citizens of Ahwaz in the occupied Ahwaz sooner or later. It will pay for transferring the land and the people of Ahwaz into a military experiment area," it said.
