Iran’s authorities are running a new propaganda campaign in Tehran that emphasizes national unity and “resistance” despite reported internal divisions. Multiple outlets report that the government has placed posters across the capital depicting Revolutionary Guards personnel and messaging about unity and victory over a major global power. The campaign coincides with a period of heightened pressure inside Iran and worsening economic conditions tied to the broader conflict environment.
The reporting also describes public events organized in connection with the campaign, including military-themed mass weddings and public gun-training sessions held in or around mosques. Authorities also highlight security and military themes in the visuals, including references to the Strait of Hormuz and the idea of a blockade.
One outlet links the timing to the recent aftermath of protests, which it characterizes as having been crushed months earlier with severe violence, and suggests the current messaging is aimed at projecting cohesion. The overall account is that the campaign is designed to project strength and solidarity while the underlying political and economic challenges persist.
