Iranian armed forces have launched a new wave of large‑scale drone and missile attacks on targets in Israeli‑occupied territories and US assets in regional countries, as the US–Israeli aggression on Iran enters its second week.
The country’s armed forces launched the 34th wave of attacks under Operation True Promise 4 on Tuesday, the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) said in a statement.
The IRGC warned that the security and stability in West Asia “is either for everyone or for no one.”
“The coordinated launch of powerful and strategic missiles, including the Qadr, Emad, and Fattah series, alongside the Khyber hypersonic missile has propelled the battlefield against US and Israeli aggressors into a new phase,” the statement added.
In another statement, IRGC announced that Iran will use missiles and submarines to stop the movement of the fleet of the United States and its allies passing through the Strait of Hormuz.
Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’ Navy Commander Alireza Tangsiri dismissed Tuesday, in a post on social media platform X, previous U.S. claims that its navy escorted oil tankers passing through the crucial waterway.
It said Iran’s Aerospace Force missiles, preceded by a vanguard of offensive drones, effectively targeted American forces at the al-Dhafra and al-Jafir bases in the UAE and Jordan respectively.
“Military bases in the northern occupied territories, specifically the Ramat David Airbase, the airport in Haifa, and the Israeli military’s missile launchers, were struck by powerful Iranian missiles,” the statement noted.
The IRGC reiterated that “the unconventional, illegitimate, and illegal attempts by US-Israeli aggressors to attack Iran’s infrastructure and massacre civilians will not go unanswered.”
It also reassured that Iran’s list of potential targets for striking US and Israeli military assets and infrastructure in the region “is ten times larger than the targets available to the weakened enemies.”
Iranian armed forces have been carrying out retaliatory attacks on US military assets in regional countries and on targets in the Israeli-occupied territories since the US and Israel started an unprovoked war of aggression against Iran on February 28.
