Iran launches wave 61 of True Promise 4 to avenge Larijani

Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) announced wave 61 of Operation True Promise 4, launching a large-scale missile attack targeting more than 100 military and security sites in the occupied territories.

According to the IRGC, the new wave focused on Tel Aviv, described as a central hub of the zionist military and security activity. The attack reportedly included advanced missile systems such as Khorramshahr-4 (multiple-warhead missile), Qadr missiles, Emad missiles, and Kheybarshkan missiles.

The statement detailed that the operation was carried out under the slogan “O Abu Abdullah Al-Hussein,” and in retaliation for the killing of Security Chief Ali Larijani and his companions in a US-zionist aggression on the country overnight.

According to the statement, the targets were successfully struck due to what it described as a collapse in the entities multi-layered air defense systems, allowing missiles to reach strategic locations.

Sirens and explosions across Tel Aviv

Early Wednesday morning, air raid sirens blared across Tel Aviv and the central occupied territories following the detection of a new wave of missiles launched from Iran. Zionist Channel 12 reported dozens of consecutive explosions echoing through the Gush Dan area.

A warehouse in the Mishmar HaShfa settlement was also destroyed, and debris from the missile salvo caused significant material damage.

Strikes cause widespread casualties and damage

The IRGC announced that the wave was conducted as a hybrid operation, targeting US bases across the region and in the occupied Palestinian territories.
