Iranian forces hit US-Israeli pilot hideouts, drone hangers in 87th wave of reprisal attacks
“This combined, continuous, multi‑stage operation began overnight and is still underway,” the statement said.
The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) says it has hit American-Israeli command centers, drone hangars, and pilot hideouts in new missile strikes on their military installations in the region.
In a statement, the IRGC said the targets were hit using ballistic missiles as part of the 87th wave of Operation True Promise 4.
The IRGC public relations office said that Iranian ballistic missiles, including liquid- and solid-fuel variants of Emad, Qiam, and Khorramshahr‑4, along with kamikaze drones had “effectively” struck the “command‑and‑control centers, drone hangars, weapons‑support warehouses, and hiding spots of American–Zionist terrorist military personnel and pilots in various areas.”
According to the IRGC statement, the strikes targeted five US bases in the region, as well as military positions in the south, center, and north of the Israeli occupied territories, including Haifa Bay, Kiryat Shmona, Tel Aviv, Be’er Sheva, Dimona, al‑Kharj, Jufair and other locations.
“This combined, continuous, multi‑stage operation began overnight and is still underway,” the statement said.
The IRGC reiterated that US bases and forces in the region, as well as Israeli “military and security centers” in occupied territories, are legitimate targets for Iran.
At the same time, the IRGC statement condemned an Israeli attack on a water desalination plant in Kuwait, calling it “unlawful, inhumane” and “a sign of the baseness and moral corruption of the Zionist occupiers.”
The IRGC urged “the countries of the West Asia region” to “remain vigilant against the sedition of the American‑Zionist movement, [which seeks] to destabilize, and destroy the region.”
The US and Israel began a fresh round of aerial aggression on Iran on February 28, approximately eight months after unprovoked attacks on the country.
Iran launched Operation True Promise 4 on the same day, hitting strategic targets in the Israeli-occupied territories and US interests across the region with ballistic missiles and drones.
