Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced a major escalation under “Operation True Promise 4,” declaring its 16th wave of retaliation against U.S. and Israeli targets across the Middle East. According to IRGC statements carried by Iranian state media, missile and drone barrages struck what Tehran describes as Israeli “war headquarters,” including the General Staff HQ, the Defense Ministry, and other military hubs near Tel Aviv, as well as U.S. bases in Erbil in northern Iraq and at Ali Al-Salem and Arifjan in Kuwait. Tehran claims around 680 enemy personnel were killed or injured over four days of strikes.
