Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) said the 66th wave of Operation “True Promise 4” was launched “as a tribute to the spirit of the martyrs of resistance, Lt. Gen. Qassem Soleimani and Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis,” using the code “Ya Zahra (AS),” and struck targets in central and southern occupied territories, including Tel Aviv, as well as the US military positions in the region.

The IRGC stated that the retaliatory assault employed a combination of solid- and liquid-fuel systems, including heavy, precision-guided, and multi-warhead missiles such as Ghadr, Khorramshahr, Kheibar Shekan, and medium-range Qiam and Zolfaghar, alongside loitering attack drones.

Meanwhile, the statement stressed that such operations are exposing the vulnerability of Israeli criminal regime’s war cabinet and its Western backers, stating that continuous sirens and prolonged confinement of illegal settlers have become the defining outcome of the ongoing imposed war.

“The criminal war cabinet of the Zionist regime, in an attempt to escape its previous defeats, internal crises, and the Epstein scandals, has entered into a pre-defeated and unjust war with Iran, resulting in severe and unbearable conditions in shelters over prolonged periods and a life dominated by constant sirens for the residents,” the statement concluded.
