Amidst rising tensions between the United States and Iran, Iran has taken a new step by preparing for a potential ground war—a move that includes an increased role for women and has caught the world by surprise. A specialized military training center for women has been established at the iconic Azadi Square in Tehran, the Iranian capital. Here, women can be seen conducting military exercises, armed with assault rifles, AK-47s, and pistols. The center provides comprehensive training required to become a soldier. According to an AP report, the facility was opened on November 10. An Iranian official stated that female volunteers are being trained to confront the U.S. in the event of a potential ground invasion; furthermore, they are being prepared to provide emergency relief, military assistance, and logistical support. This initiative by Iran is not limited to combat operations; it is also designed to ensure readiness for providing aid, relief, and rescue operations during any crisis.
