Haifa Targeted in Attack, F35 Shot Down and Repeated Strikes on Zionist Colony

The Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) announced the launch of wave 65 of Operation True Promise 4, striking key targets across the West Asia region.

Precision-guided missiles targeted the Haifa and Asdod oil refineries, among the largest oil facilities in the zionist entity, alongside multiple security installations and military support centers.

Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guard Corps announced on Thursday that it had targeted a US F-35 Lightning II in the skies over central Iran at dawn.

In a statement, the IRGC said the advanced fighter jet was engaged during the early hours, adding that the aircraft’s fate remains unclear and is currently under investigation. The group noted that there is a strong possibility the jet may have crashed, though no further details were immediately available.

The United States Central Command confirmed that the US F-35 Lightning II made an emergency landing following a combat mission over Iran.

Spokesperson Tim Hawkins said the aircraft landed safely at a regional US air base and that the pilot is in stable condition.

“We are aware of reports that a U.S. F-35 aircraft conducted an emergency landing at a regional U.S airbase after flying a combat mission over Iran. The aircraft landed safely, and the pilot is in stable condition. This incident is under investigation,” Hawkins stated.

The event marks the first reported instance of Iran hitting a US fifth-generation fighter since the start of the US-zionist war on Iran in late February. In fact, it is the first recorded instance of an F-35 being hit in combat ever.

Wave 65, OTP 4: ‘Nasrallah’ missile system deployed in a first

The IRGC announced the launch of wave 65 of Operation True Promise 4, striking key targets across the West Asia region.

Precision-guided missiles targeted the Haifa and Ashdod oil refineries, among the largest oil facilities in the Israeli entity, alongside multiple security installations and military support centers.

This operation marked the first operational deployment of ‘Nasrallah’ missile system. According to the IRGC, medium-range Qiam and Zolfaghar missiles hit US targets at Al-Kharj Base, including critical fuel supply points for F-16, F-35, and AWACS aircraft.

Additional attacks focused on Sheikh Isa Base, responsible for command and communications, and Al-Dhafra Base, with high-precision strikes delivered by Qadr multi-warhead missiles and other systems, including Khaybar Shekan, Qiam, and Zolfaghar, the IRGC statement added

Wave 64, OTP 4: IRGC strikes Ben Gurion airport, Haifa refineries

Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) announced the launch of wave 64 of Operation True Promise 4 early Thursday, against multiple targets in the occupied Palestinian territories.

In a statement released by its Public Relations Office, the IRGC said the operation targeted sites in central and northern areas in the entity, including Ben Gurion Airport, the main hub for the regime’s combat assembly, operations, and logistical support, as well as fuel supply infrastructure. Additional targets reportedly included areas in Haifa, hosting troop concentrations and oil refineries, along with sites in Rishon LeZion.

The IRGC added that a myriad of missiles were deployed in the operations, including Ghadr, Emad, Kheibar Shekan, and 9 multi-warhead Khorramshahr missiles.

US Navy Fifth Fleet targeted yet again

The statement further reported that the United States Navy’s Fifth Fleet had been struck by medium-range, liquid and solid fuel missile systems.

According to the IRGC, the operations are part of a broader response to the US-zionist aggression, noting that millions of Israeli settlers have been forced into shelters since the previous wave of attacks.

The IRGC said wave 64 is dedicated to the leaders of the Islamic Revolution and all martyrs of the Sacred Defense, the defenders of the shrines, and those martyred in the ongoing aggression on the country.

For Lorenzo Orsetti

The One Who Did Not Die for War, but for the Struggle in the Name of Humanity

For the anniversary of the martyrdom of Lorenzo Orsetti, Ş. Tekoşer Piling, Italian martyr of the Rojava Revolution, we publish the letter of an Indonesian friend, that found hope and inspiration in the struggle of Lorenzo. Lorenzo fell on 18th March 2019 in the struggle against ISIS, and his revolutionary approach to life, that arrived to us through his writings and video messages, became an inspiration to young people in Italy and beyond.

I first encountered you not through the news or the newspapers, but through a simple post on an anarchist website—without ornament or embellishment, just the quiet story of a fighter from Florence who chose to leave the comfort of his home to stand on the front line against the brutality of ISIS in Rojava.

Then I saw the video of your funeral, shared by Tekosîna Anarsîst — the Anarchist Struggle (TA). Your journey home was not accompanied by a rigid military ceremony or by the waving flags of a State, but by the banners of popular organizations, surrounded by hundreds of faces: Kurds, Arabs, Assyrians, Yazidis, Turkmen, all mourning together, calling you heval, brother, şehîd namirin—the martyr who never dies.

In a desert so often labeled “foreign” by the West, you were embraced as part of the family by its peoples. It was no coincidence. It was the fruit of a life lived with honesty, just as you once said: “Every storm begins with a single drop.”

As an anarcho-communist from a nation once crushed under the boots of Suharto’s “New Order”—where state violence was called “development” and freedom was labeled “a threat”—and now, watching history repeat itself as militarism rises again, remembering you rekindles something within me. In you I saw something rare: you showed that internationalism is not just a slogan. It is a shared hope that guides us all. Together with your internationalist comrades, you breathed life into its truest meaning.

You proved that a young European could live in the Middle East not to conquer, but to learn; to protect and in turn be protected; to build together what we call humanity and democratic civilization.

Your values—and those of your comrades—antimilitarism, antifascism, anticapitalism—are bridges. Not only between Italy and Rojava, but among all of us who reject a world divided between rulers and ruled. Here we are building ties with anticapitalist socialists from many traditions—anarchists, libertarian Marxists, autonomous communists, Marxist-Leninists—and in your dream we see our own: a world without oppressive nation-states, without markets that trade lives like data and commodities, without wars that benefit only arms dealers and banks. A world in which communes—not capital or power—shape our lives. The world you fought for until your last breath.

Lorenzo, here as well—in Indonesia, in Southeast Asia, across the Global South—we are planting those same seeds, despite repression, even in scarcity, still organizing underground. And every time we grow tired, we remember: somewhere, a young Italian, together with hundreds like him, chose to die for his convictions—not for a flag, not for glory, but for people who were not even his family.

Your spirit flows through every discussion we have had in recent years, inspired by the paradigm developed by our Kurdish comrades; through every small book we publish; through every clandestine political education session we organize.

You remind us that this struggle is not only about resistance to power. It is about love—radical love, without borders, unconditional.

¡Hasta siempre, heval Lorenzo!

Your dream is our oxygen.

And we will not stop—not until our last breath has also been given.
