🇮🇷🇮🇶 - Iran's IRGC moves further military equipment to its border with Iraqi Kurdistan.

— 🇮🇷 In the video above, we can see a squad of Iranian paramilitary volunteers belonging to the Basij

They are wearing balaclavas, have the proper camouflage, and one of them is holding what seems to be an SVD (Dragunov) sniper rifle. This is very similar to the type of Basij squads we saw fighting in Syria.

If a ground invasion were to really happen, the majority of actual urban fighting would most likely be done by Basijis (paramilitary volunteers).
