Iran's top leadership has ordered the activation of a decentralized defense system, known as "mosaic defense," due to fears of a potential joint strike by the United States and Israel. According to TodayPress.tv, citing sources, regional commanders have been provided with lists of U.S. economic and political targets in the Middle East that could be attacked if hostilities commence.
The "mosaic defense" doctrine is designed to ensure the continuation of military operations even if the central leadership is incapacitated or disabled. Under this strategy, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has been divided into 31 provincial commands, each with significant operational autonomy and its own stockpiles of weapons and resources. Local commanders are empowered to make independent decisions and act without direct orders from Tehran, enabling missile and drone attacks even if communication with the central headquarters is lost.
This structure aims to make Iran's defensive and retaliatory actions more resilient to external pressure and targeted strikes, according to the publication.
