A special bulletin prepared by media experts for IRGC commander-in-chief Hossein Salami noted concerns by Iranian officials that the Basij paramilitary organization is too weak to stop the protests and that too strict indictments were being issued against protesters, according to a document leaked by the Black Reward hacktivist group on Wednesday.

According to the Black Reward group, the bulletins were periodically prepared under the supervision of Abbas Darwish Tawangar, the Deputy Director of Fars News Agency. The leak comes amid a series of documents and recordings retrieved from the Fars News Agency's databases by the hacktivist group.

The first section of the bulletin regard "hearsay" concerning Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, with the supreme leader reportedly expressing concerns that the media was lagging in responding to the protests across Iran. "We are at war and one of the tools of this war is the media."
