The statement said the missiles, each carrying a one-ton warhead, were fired toward central Tel Aviv, Ben Gurion Airport and the base of the Israeli air force’s 27th squadron located at the airport.
The IRGC said the launches were conducted at dawn under the operation’s code phrase “Ya Hassan ibn Ali (peace be upon him).”
The statement added that the strategic missiles, accompanied by attack drones, successfully passed through multiple layers of regional and internal air defenses in the occupied territories, creating “a real hell for the aggressors.”
Separately, the statement said that during the 18th wave of Operation True Promise 4, 20 US military targets in the region were struck in Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates and Kuwait.
The IRGC’s statement underscored the unprecedented coordination among Iran’s armed forces, executing a multi-pronged, simultaneous assault that has rewritten the rules of engagement, far beyond the military calculations of both the US and the Zionist regime.
"The cowardly retreat of American troops from their regional bases and hiding in the hotels of host nations while their criminal military exploits civilian infrastructure in the Persian Gulf has not gone unnoticed by the intelligence apparatus of the IRGC. The brave warriors of the IRGC now lie in wait, poised to hunt down every invading US soldier. They will not rest until they have seized them by the collar, as there will be no escape," the statement concluded.
