Single source · Javanrud, Iran · 2026-10-30 14:10 UTC

The IRGC says its Ground Forces dismantled a two-person team it links to foreign intelligence services in Javanrud, Kermanshah, and seized 10 Starlink devices, 10 Kalashnikov rifles and 5,000 rounds of ammunition. Iranian outlets and Telegram channels relay the same IRGC statement, and the seizure figures match across versions, while the wording varies between dismantled, destroyed and annihilated. No independent confirmation or denial has been found.

Details by origin

Each detail, with the independent origins that reported it. An origin is the outlet or channel where a claim first appeared; reposts count once. A row counts no more independent origins than the event does above; where it lists more, it says so. This counts reports: it is not a measure of accuracy, and it does not change the event's status. "Reports differ" means two origins gave values that cannot both be true; it is about that detail, not about whether the incident happened.
