Iran launches major missile, drone attack on Israeli targets

In a bold and decisive response to the Israeli occupation’s continued aggression, the Islamic Republic of Iran has launched its most extensive missile and drone operation to date, delivering direct blows to Israeli military and industrial targets.
The Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) confirmed the launch of over 100 ballistic missiles and drones as part of Operation True Promise 3, targeting the heart of the Israeli occupation’s infrastructure. The strikes focused on Haifa, a key military and industrial hub in northern occupied Palestine, where explosions rocked the city and fires erupted across multiple strategic facilities, including oil refineries.
According to Iranian media, the IRGC’s Aerospace Forces utilized advanced Imad, Badr, and Khaybar missiles in a coordinated assault from various Iranian provinces. The operation, described as a complex and successful military maneuver, showcased Iran’s growing defensive capabilities and its commitment to confronting the occupation's repeated violations.
Air raid sirens echoed across occupied Palestine for the second consecutive day, especially in Haifa and surrounding regions such as the Karyot area, al-Nasira, Afula, and Upper and Western al-Jalil. The Israeli Home Front Command ordered settlers to remain in shelters as Iran’s precision-guided weaponry reached its intended targets.
Al Mayadeen’s correspondent on the ground reported that the strike was not only the largest of its kind but also the most effective, with critical Israeli facilities hit and disabled. Iranian sources indicated that a new generation of ballistic missiles was employed, signaling a significant advancement in Tehran’s deterrence capabilities.
This operation stands as a firm message from the Islamic Republic: aggression against the region’s sovereign nations will not go unanswered. Iran’s action underscores its unwavering support for the Palestinian cause and its readiness to challenge the military dominance of the Israeli occupation. (ILKHA)
