Iran has launched a new phase of the "Fedayee" campaign, which has shifted from propaganda mobilization and public gatherings to forming a thousand battalions and training thousands of volunteers in military, security, and relief efforts under the supervision of the armed forces. Training began in Tehran on September 19, 2026, with a plan to gradually expand to other regions. The exercises include military skills, internal security, intelligence monitoring, as well as the use of drones and shoulder-fired weapons. The project aims to enhance Iran's capacity to face external threats and natural disasters by establishing a network of volunteers. However, criticism warns that the units might be used for domestic repression or unrest. Street advertisements have shown a recruiting drive among women and various social groups. Officials announced that more than 31 million people have expressed their desire to participate, although there are doubts about the accuracy of this figure.
