Iran has started defence training sessions for civilians as the conflict involving the United States, Israel, and Iran continues without a clear end in sight. According to Iranian state television, men and women in several cities have been taking part in training exercises involving light weapons and defence preparation. The government described the programme as part of “public readiness to defend the country.” The training sessions were reportedly held in mosques and community centres across different parts of Iran. Videos broadcast on state media showed groups of civilians learning basic defence skills and receiving instructions from trainers. The move comes as tensions remain high following months of military confrontation and regional instability involving Iran, the United States, and Israel. Iranian officials have repeatedly said the country is prepared to defend itself against any further escalation. The government appears to be encouraging civilians to show support and readiness during the ongoing crisis. Analysts say the public training programmes are also meant to demonstrate national unity and preparedness at a time when the country faces military pressure, economic difficulties, and internal tensions. The conflict has already had a major impact on daily life inside Iran. Reports from international organisations and rights groups describe growing economic hardship, internet restrictions, and increased security measures across the country. Some experts believe Iran is trying to strengthen public morale by involving civilians in defence-related activities. Others say the government wants to send a message that the country is ready for a prolonged period of tension if necessary. Iranian authorities have not said how long the training programmes will continue or how many civilians are taking part nationwide. The Strait of Hormuz, missile attacks, military strikes, and diplomatic tensions have all contributed to growing fears of a wider regional conflict in recent months. Despite ongoing pressure, Iran continues to show signs of military and public mobilisation while officials insist the country will continue defending its sovereignty and national security.
