The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) of Iran has officially announced the nationwide expansion of its 'Janfada' campaign, which translates to 'self-sacrifice.' According to state-affiliated reports, the organization intends to establish a presence in the primary public squares of every provincial capital across the country’s 31 provinces.

The campaign is framed by the IRGC as a mobilization effort designed to instill and promote the values of self-sacrifice among the Iranian public. While the IRGC has confirmed the geographical scope of the project, details regarding the specific activities, duration, or the intended audience for these public square gatherings remain limited. The move appears to be part of a broader effort by Iranian authorities to reinforce state-aligned ideological messaging through public visibility.

Observers note that the use of central public spaces for such campaigns is a common tactic for the Iranian government to demonstrate organizational reach and maintain a visible presence in urban centers. As of now, there has been no official statement regarding whether these events will involve mandatory attendance or if they are intended to be voluntary public demonstrations. The IRGC has not provided a specific timeline for when all 31 provinces will be fully operational under this campaign, but the announcement marks a significant scaling up of the initiative from its previous, more localized status.
