This is another western media propaganda, there was no panic which Trump intended to create with his threats but rather defiance from the Iranian citizens
Exactly! Propaganda for the gullible especially black colonised Africans who are bearing the weight of the war through high fuel costs.

On the surface, it may seem these Iranian leaders are actually fighting for their country. The truth is they are fighting to make sure they continue looting the resources of Iran to buy very expensive, high brow properties in UK and US, while they use terror, fear and religion to hold back the ordinary Iranian citizens from protesting against them 😎

The irgc are all weak, so they are out of missiles to protect their infrastructures, they now resort to using human shield, not just any human but women and children, the Hamas style, by doing so, they have activated the victim card ready to play it, in all this where is Russia and China? I thought they could protect iran.
they shouldn't have agreed to the deal on the straight, by now, they would have been torched back to 18bc..😊

Junk journalism. Can any such calls bring citizens to the street if they didn't indeed like their govt? Common sense isn't common actually.
Terrorists in Nigeria send communities letter to evacuate or face strike and the communities does so out of fear of what might befall them.
Do you mean to tell me that the communities love the bandits for obeying?

Harrowing goodbye messages leak from inside Iran as citizens are ordered 'to bring children to the streets' before Trump announces two-week ceasefire


As the clock ticked toward President Donald Trump's 8pm Eastern deadline for Iran to come to the negotiating table, panic gripped the nation.

Facing the threat of devastating military strikes, terrified civilians told the Daily Mail they were frantically evacuating major cities and saying goodbye to loved ones - even as defiant government leaders deploy a chilling tactic: ordering their own citizens onto the streets as human shields.

The call to gather at infrastructure sites came directly from an Iranian official, captured in an Associated Press video clip.

Speaking in Farsi, he urged 'youth, athletes, artists, students and professors' to assemble at power plants the following day at 2pm local time, arguing that their presence would expose any American strike as a war crime.

The extreme request came after President Trump wrote on Truth Social: 'A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don't want that to happen, but it probably will.'

With the President openly pledging a 'Power Plant Day' and 'Bridge Day' to dismantle Iran's infrastructure, sources in Tehran and Isfahan described scenes of chaos - road blockages, mass evacuations, and state television brazenly instructing citizens to gather around key sites with their children.

'They are announcing on national TV - come to the streets and bring your children,' one source with family inside Iran tells the Daily Mail. 'It's their thing to use people as human shields. Same pattern as in Palestine. They do this instead of surrendering or making a deal.'

He added: 'Government supporters will go. They are barbaric. They believe even if they die - even if their children die for the sake of Islam - they will end up in Heaven. My mom says every night they come onto the streets, chanting death to America, death to Israel. Even until midnight.'

Thankfully Donald Trump announced late on Tuesday night that Iran has agreed to a two-week ceasefire and will re-open the Strait of Hormuz, after Tehran submitted a 10-point peace plan to end the war.

Despite the terror, some anti–regime citizens see a glimmer of hope that the new Ayatollah's grip on the country might finally be loosened, if not shattered.

'At the end of Trump's message, you can clearly see he mentioned that 47 years of death and corruption will end - so that means no more Islamic tyranny,' the source added.

But Trump's ultimatum appears to be explicitly about Iran's blockade and nuclear program, not regime change. His public messaging has framed a successful deal in terms of denuclearization, not necessarily toppling the entire Islamic Republic.

Trump's rhetoric has left many Iranians conflicted. One points to the tension at the heart of his message: 'It's paradoxical - he says a whole civilization will die tonight, but also blesses the great people of Iran.'

Across the country, citizens are bracing for the worst. Supermarket shelves are being stripped bare as people stockpile ahead of threatened rolling blackouts and severed supply chains. One Iranian says he and his family have already stocked up on water and supplies - but fear cuts both ways.

They are very stressed,' the source says, 'but at the same time, if this war ends now, it would literally be a living hell - because the government would retaliate.'

For many, the regime is as frightening a prospect as American airstrikes. The government's crackdown on communications has prompted a wave of digital self-erasure: two Iranians - one in Tehran, one in Isfahan - are already saying their goodbyes and frantically deleting message threads with contacts abroad

.My internet connection keeps cutting out for long periods. If our chat stays on Instagram, it could put me in serious danger - the regime randomly connects people's phones to the internet in the streets and checks their apps. I have to delete our chat. Wishing you a path full of success.'

That was Bahareh's last message. She asked that her surname not be published.

For those with the means, leaving the city is the only option. Major roads are jammed with families fleeing to remote areas, far from the power grids and military installations likely to be in the crosshairs.

One Iranian says his entire family has relocated to his uncle's villa in the countryside. 'They are safer there, it is a pretty calm and peaceful place,' he said, declining to say where.

With hours left until the 8 p.m. deadline, the world is watching to see whether last-minute diplomacy can pull back from the brink - or whether Iran goes dark tonight.

Damn! The same "human shield" tactics used by the Iranian backed Hamas in Gaza.

The use of this same human shield method was highly predictable since the highly insidious Iranian mullahs and Hamas (including Hezbollah and the Yemeni Houthies) are birds of a feather.

Even after your master Trump don successfully beg for ceasefire you still here spreading propaganda huh huh huh Even if something like this do exist in Iran it will be very minute, the reason why all your masters' objectives ( Including the most important one of the 'Regime change) of this war couldn't be achieved.

Thank God the West/ you people had also failed in making only West Media the source of global news. We all saw how enthusiastic the IRANIAN were ready yesterday to sacrifice their lives defending their land in a manner that even Nigeria you people have unpatriotic ally bastardized so much in the community of nations can't have her citizens to ready for such sacrifices

You can spit the rubbish as you like Nigerians with functioning brains and the world actually know who's been begging for ceasefire all along

Trump's problem is that he talks too much. So he gives Iran enough time to plan a counter move towards whatever actions he planned to take.

Israel would just bomb and move on, but trump would spend an hour exposing classified military strategy to the enemy. How do you expect them to sit back and watch you destroy their country. They'll take up preventive measures.
Trump really doesn't want to cause much harm to Iran,he just wants their nuclear program to end completely.Trump isn't a fool,he gives threats because he wants Iran to agree a deal.
Isreal are the ones who wants to cripple Iran completely...,heard Isreal aren't happy for the ceasefire agreement and they might still attack Iran because they don't trust the Iranian regime

So they weren't bombed because the citizens came out? Sounds like a good move. Is that a bad thing? But, where is the evidence they were forced? There is a musician who has always been against the IRGC. He started the movement and played for two days in front of a power plant. Even his hate for IRGC doesn't mean his country should be destroyed. Sorry, but I think the west is saving face. If they wanted to bomb their power sources which could lead to death of civilians in the hospital then they really didn't care about the Iranian citizens.

The Iranians came out in solidarity to protect their assets. This news came from daily mail. BBC also came out with an unverifiable poll that some Iranians wanted them to be nuked. Let's even assume that is true that they found a few crazies, would that make it justified? So they would say we nuked Iran because Mr John Doe said we should? Show evidence of them being forced. The announcement etc. Do you know how many people showed up?

Why are you so gleeful watching people and their infrastructure being destroyed? Easy man. Petrol is $2 for a full tank in Iran and yet Ayatolla na bad man. Ok oh. I keep checking to be sure I read right.

Iran are only trying to act courageous but deep inside they know what could possibly go wrong. But those folks in Nigeria that know nothing are busy talking tough not knowing that Iran are strongly looking for that cease fire. We all know what Trump can do that was why sensible people were encouraging them to ask for a cease fire.
Thank God they accepted to cease fire.

Trump is right to call such people lunatics. How can human beings be used as shield? And they could eliminate their people if they don't obey
AND TRUMP WHO PROMISED TO "WIPE OUT A CIVILISATION", AND THAT "A WHOLE CIVILISATION WILL DIE TONIGHT".

THOSE STATEMENTS ALONE ARE WAR CRIMES.

WHERE WAS YOUR OUTRAGE OVER SUCH A REPULSIVE, DEMONIC, GENOCIDAL STATEMENT BY A PRESIDENT OF A SUPERPOWER?

YOUR BIAS JUST STINKS.

YOU'RE INHUMAN.

SAME APPLIES TO ALL OF YOU PRETENDING TO CARE ABOUT IRANIAN CIVILIANS, BUT HAD NO PROBLEM WITH TRUMP THREATENING TO DROP A NUCLEAR BOMB ON THEM, WHICH YOU WOULD HAVE CHEERED.

JUST SHUT UP AND ENJOY IRAN'S VICTORY, BECAUSE THEY OVERCAME YOUR COLLECTIVE HATE AND GENOCIDE ATTEMPTS ON THEM, THINKING THEY WERE ANOTHER GAZA, WITH PEOPLE FREE FOR YOU AND ISRAEL TO SLAUGHTER.

Terrorists, Terrorists' government and terrorists' sympathizers - they don't value human lives.
