The Morning Jolt, back on January 12:
If the U.S. wanted to target the parts of the regime that are most directly attacking the protesters, it would likely be locations of the Basij militia, or the “The Sâzmân-e Basij-e Mostaz’afin” (“The Organization for Mobilization of the Oppressed”). The Basij militia are part of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps… According to open-source intelligence from Treadstone71: The Tharallah Central Security Headquarters acts as the IRGC’s elite domestic security command. 27th Mohammad Rasoul Allah Division (Tehran) — A mechanized and urban combat division. Formed during the war, now specializes in riot control, rapid deployment inside Greater Tehran, and crowd suppression. 20th Ramazan Armored Brigade (Hassanabad, S. Tehran) — An armored brigade with T-72 tanks and BMPs for deterrent power. Located at the capital’s southern perimeter. The 27th Division is based near Pasdaran Avenue and has long been tied to the Vali Asr Garrison in north-central Tehran.

This weekend, according to Iran International:
Video released by the Israeli military on Sunday appears to show a strike on the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’ Thar-Allah Headquarters in Tehran, a key command center responsible for security in the capital. The IDF earlier said it had destroyed a command center of the Islamic Republic in Tehran and published aerial footage of the strike. The Thar-Allah Headquarters is an IRGC command tasked with overseeing security in the Tehran area and reporting directly to the Guard’s top commander. Beyond its formal security role, the headquarters has played a central part in the suppression of popular protests in Iran.
