Prince Reza Pahlavi's media office on Wednesday, 21 October 2026, released a short video of "Javid Shah" ("Long live the Shah") graffiti on Iran's streets, accompanied by a message from members of the "Javidan Guard". The message reads: "Long live the Shah! Together we will pass through the darkness."

The 34-second video was posted on the official channel of the Prince's media office and, according to the office, was sent by compatriots inside Iran. The media office did not give the city or the exact time the footage was recorded.

Graffiti: the voice of the national revolution under the shadow of repression

In the months since the January uprising, writing slogans on walls has become one of the main ways of expressing support for Prince Reza Pahlavi and Iran's national revolution inside the country; a practice that continues despite the risk of arrest, prison and even heavy security charges.

Prince Reza Pahlavi's office has released several other messages from inside Iran in recent days, including a message in which compatriots pledged to continue the path of Alireza Raeisi and Alireza Sepahi, two protesters executed in Isfahan. The release of these messages shows that despite widespread repression, the bond between supporters inside the country and Prince Reza Pahlavi's leadership remains firm.

The new message from members of the Javidan Guard, with the sentence "Together we will pass through the darkness", stresses solidarity and hope for the end of the Islamic Republic's era; a hope that has stayed alive among many Iranians amid war, economic blockade and the country's successive crises.
