In an attempt to quell the people’s uprisings in Urumeih and Tabriz, the clerical regime dispatched a number of its suppressive forces’ commanders to Urumieh. One of the IRGC commanders on Friday, September 9th, insulted the people of Urumieh in his conversation with the city’s head of State Security Forces. This sparked a clash between the SSF and dispatched IRGC forces from Tehran. In this conflict that took place in Urumieh Airport many from both sides were injured and wounded and taken to the IRGC hospital in Urumieh. In this incident, upon the orders of the IRGC commander, the Urumieh airport was closed.
