Turin, 13 March (LaPresse) – Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps has warned that any new anti-government protests in the country will be met with a harsher response than the previous crackdown in January, during which thousands of people were killed. ‘The enemy, failing to achieve its objectives on the battlefield, is once again trying to instil fear and foment riots in the streets,’ reads the statement broadcast on television and relayed by Al Jazeera. The Pasdaran have threatened to inflict ‘a stronger response than on 8 January’ in the event of new unrest.
