Internal rift and supply crisis strain Iranian military amid intensifying war.

Informed sources reveal that Iran’s military structure is under immense pressure due to acute supply shortages and a deepening rift between the regular army (Artesh) and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).

A major point of contention has emerged over medical support, with reports alleging that the IRGC has refused to transport wounded regular army personnel to hospitals despite having the facilities to do so. On the frontlines, logistical failures have left troops with minimal ammunition, food, and water; in some instances, two soldiers are reportedly sharing as few as 20 bullets.

These dire conditions, coupled with perceived neglect from the high command, have led to instances of group desertions. Furthermore, recent attempts by the IRGC to mobilize reserve forces have largely faltered, as many summoned individuals chose to flee toward border regions instead of reporting for duty. While strategic missile units remain prioritized, the deteriorating living conditions for ground personnel are raising serious questions about the sustainability of Iran’s military operations.
