The US CIA is likely providing weapons to Kurdish groups in Iran to intensify internal conflicts in the country.

This is reported by CNN, citing sources.

The channel’s sources report that the Donald Trump administration is discussing the possibility of military support with the Iranian opposition and Kurdish leaders. It is expected that Kurdish units may soon take part in ground operations in western Iran.

One American official noted: “Now there is a favorable opportunity for such actions.” According to Washington’s plan, Kurdish formations should enter into confrontation with Iranian security forces.

“This will allow residents of large cities to protest without a harsh crackdown similar to the events of January,” the source said. Another source added that Kurdish activity could destabilize the region and exhaust Iran’s military potential.

Experts note that Kurdish groups are fragmented, have different interests and past conflicts, so cooperation with the United States may be difficult. The CIA declined to comment on this information.

As a reminder, there have been changes in Iran’s top leadership. As Iran International reports: “Under pressure from the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps,Iran’s Assembly of Experts has elected Mojtab, son of Ali Khamenei, as the new supreme leader.”

Earlier it became known that the Supreme Leader of Iran Ali Khamenei was killed as a result of the operation of the USA and Israel . Subsequently, the US President Donald Trump made a statement about Khamenei , according to him, the operation was carried out in cooperation with Israel

Putin later commented on the assassination of Iran’s supreme leader . He stated that Khamenei’s death was a violation of international law and expressed condolences to Iran.

By the way, for several years , Israel had access to most of the traffic cameras located in Tehran, which helped to establish the location of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.

As reported, a spokesman for the Iranian Foreign Ministry said that any actions by European countries directed against Iran would be regarded as an “act of war.”
