"The goal is to preserve security, support security operations, and ensure stability," the ministry stated in a post on network X, adding: "Everyone is called upon to follow instructions and cooperate with the competent authorities." This measure comes at a time of heightened tensions in the Middle East, after U.S. President Donald Trump sent sharp messages to Tehran and threatened a possible response to Iran's moves. In reaction, several countries in the region have raised their level of caution, and such rhetoric has further heightened fears of a possible escalation. Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmail Baghaei also spoke out, stating that the power of culture, logic, and faith in a just cause of a civilized people will undoubtedly overcome the logic of force.
