Iranian defense sources confirmed Tuesday that a significant number of senior officers and commanders within the Israeli regime’s intelligence services were killed in a high-precision missile strike conducted by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).

The strike targeted critical military and intelligence facilities in northern Jaffa, Tel Aviv.

Citing anonymous defense officials, Iran’s Tasnim News Agency reported that both officers and non-commissioned personnel were among the casualties, including high-ranking figures in Israel’s intelligence and security leadership. The IRGC reportedly targeted a command center used by Israel’s Military Intelligence Directorate, known as “Aman,” and a Mossad planning hub.

The IRGC's Aerospace Division was able to deliver a direct hit despite the presence of sophisticated Israeli air defense systems. In a statement earlier in the day, the IRGC confirmed that the strike ignited fires at the targeted Mossad facility, noting that “the center is currently on fire.”

According to the report, the Israeli regime has enforced strict media censorship in the aftermath of the attack, imposing a complete blackout on information related to the extent of the damage or the identities of those killed. No official confirmation or casualty figures have been released by Israeli authorities.

The missile strike marks a significant escalation in Iran’s response to Israeli actions in the region and forms part of a broader campaign of retaliation carried out by Tehran under the banner of national defense and deterrence.

This latest development follows a series of high-profile operations conducted by Iran in recent days, including attacks targeting sensitive Israeli military and intelligence infrastructure. (ILKHA)
