The city of Abdanan, located in the Iranian province of Ilam, has reportedly fallen into the hands of protesters and rebel groups, who managed to take control of the area after clashes with the regime's security forces, according to reports from opposition media.
If confirmed, this would be the first city that has reportedly come under protesters' control in the context of the current uprising against the Iranian regime, while the protests continue to spread in other regions of the country.
According to the reports released, the anti-regime demonstrations in Abdanan have intensified recently, with large crowds of people in the streets. In this context, the clashes with the security forces forced the officers to withdraw from different parts of the city, which reportedly allowed the protesters to assume control of key areas.

Iranian opposition media indicated that units of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) tried to confront the protesters in Abdanan, but they encountered strong resistance.
After trying to suppress the protests violently and unsuccessfully, various reports indicated that the forces of the Islamic regime retreated and took refuge on the roof of the local police station, while a crowd gathered in the surrounding area.
In that context, the authorities reportedly ordered a cut in the city's electricity supply, with the aim of trying to hinder the protesters' organization and prevent the unrest from spreading.
In parallel, Iranian state media offered a different version of the events that took place in Abdanan, and they did not acknowledge a total loss of control by the security forces or a takeover of the city by protesters.

Despite the conflicting accounts, various sources agree that the security forces have reportedly lost control of important sectors of Abdanan, a city located near the border with Iraq.
The episode in Abdanan is taking place in a scenario of protests that are intensifying significantly in Iran. In several cities, clashes have been reported between protesters and regime forces, amid a climate of growing social and political unrest, marked by a severe economic crisis.
