Tehran (HRNW) — Human rights observers are raising concerns about increasing security measures in Iran as the conflict in the region intensifies. Authorities have urged citizens to report suspicious activity and warned against what they call a “fifth column,” signaling tighter domestic surveillance.
Rights advocates fear that the situation could lead to greater restrictions on civil liberties, including freedom of expression and assembly, especially during wartime conditions. Analysts say heightened security environments often create risks of arbitrary arrests and repression of dissent.
