(Worthy News) – The commander of the Iranian Basij contingent of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps that is used by the government to suppress protests was killed in front of his home Wednesday in Khuzestan province, Iran.

According to Iranian media, Abdolhossein Mojaddami was gunned down by two men mounted on motorcycles wearing masks.

“People smell the opportunity for the first time in 40 years,” Reza Pahlavi, former crown prince of Iran, said at the Hudson Institute Wednesday. “This time is very different from 2009, even very different from 1997. The people have had it.”

Thousands of protestors took to the streets in Tehran and elsewhere in Iran after the regime admitted to accidentally downing a Ukranian passenger jet.

169 Christians were arrested in Iran over the past year, according to the most recent World Watch List from Open Doors USA, though it is thought to have one of the fastest-growing Christian movements in the world.
