Iran Launches First All-Female Military Training Camp Amid Rising Tensions
Iran has opened its first all-female military training camp in Tehran, aiming to prepare women for potential conflict amid U.S. tensions.
Tehran, November 11 (Daily Kiran) : Iran has inaugurated its first all-female military training camp in Tehran, a move prompted by escalating tensions with the United States. The camp, located at Azadi Square, is designed for women eager to contribute to the nation’s defense, especially in light of anticipated U.S. attacks.
The official launch of the training facility took place on Tuesday. This initiative is part of a broader national campaign that includes military drills, emergency response training, and logistical support. Images and videos from the camp have circulated widely, showcasing women practicing with assault rifles, scaling walls, and participating in zipline exercises. Some participants even brought their children along.
Iranian officials have stated that the camp aims to equip women to defend the country against potential ground assaults by the U.S. According to Press TV, earlier this year, thousands of women and girls participated in a rally titled “Daughters Devoted to Iran” in central Tehran. This event occurred during a ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran, with attendees protesting against the U.S. and Israel.
Participants at the rally pledged loyalty to the new leader of the Islamic Revolution and expressed their readiness to defend the nation. The event coincided with Iran’s “Girls Day” and the celebration of the birthday of the Prophet Muhammad’s daughter.
Meanwhile, Iran’s top security official, Mohsen Rezaei, announced that there are currently no negotiations between Tehran and Washington. In an interview with the Iran-aligned broadcaster Al-Mayadeen, Rezaei indicated that Iran expects a response from the U.S. regarding seven conditions outlined in a June interim agreement. He emphasized that the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and the resumption of talks are contingent upon this response.
Rezaei noted that Tehran has requested a “clear and straightforward” answer from Washington but has yet to receive one, suggesting that a response may come later.
