Iran Announces Gradual Resumption of Administrative Activities in Tehran

Iran's government announced yesterday that it will gradually resume administrative activities, with 20% of employees in departments, organizations, and administrative units located in Tehran province returning to on-site work starting Sunday. According to Ming Pao, female employees will work remotely, and designated banks will remain open. Tehran's ability to maintain a semblance of normalcy has surprised observers. The Washington Post reported on Thursday, citing assessments from Arab and European officials, that despite significant losses from Israeli attacks, Iran's theocratic regime's control remains unshaken. The regime had prepared for such scenarios, and even after the 'decapitation' of several military and political leaders, including Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the military and political command structure continues to function smoothly, allowing for counterattacks against adversaries. There are no signs of large-scale defections or public uprisings.
