The IRGC operates parallel to but independently of the regular Iranian military, directly reporting to the Supreme Leader. It has evolved into a vast entity with responsibilities ranging from military defense to political and economic control. The IRGC includes specialized branches like the Quds Force, which handles foreign operations, and the Basij, a volunteer militia used domestically to enforce state ideology and suppress dissent.
