IDF Spokesman Brig. Gen. Efi Defrin was asked if striking the Basij would lead to calls for Iranian citizens to take to the streets. He responded: 'As a military, we have no goal to topple a regime. We are creating the conditions for the people to take their country. We struck the Basij forces that impose terror on the citizens. What the Iranian people will do – that depends on them.'
