Standing in, lying out: Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps announces the 82nd wave of "Truth Oath 4" military operation
- Targets include military infrastructure such as command centers, radar and communication systems, and drone bases.
- Targeted areas include: Sha'ar HaNegev (Shemona), northern/central/southern Tel Aviv, Haifa, as well as U.S. military bases in the Middle East—Dafra Base, Ali Sallim Base, and Alifjan Base. Iranian forces employed missile systems and drones including "Habib al-Shakkan," "Zulfiqar," and "Imad."
- The statement claims the operation was conducted in coordination with allied armed forces, specifically highlighting joint actions with Lebanon’s Hezbollah and Iraqi armed groups. According to Iranian figures, the total number of operations across all types exceeded 200.
- Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps also stated that it will continue its military actions, asserting that the current phase has entered a new stage of confrontation.
This marks a large-scale, multi-front coordinated strike by Iran against Israeli and U.S. military targets in the Middle East, exhibiting several key characteristics:
1. Extensive reach: Covers the entire territory of Israel and multiple U.S. military bases abroad, demonstrating a significant increase in both intensity and geographical scope;
2. Allied coordination: Explicitly synchronized with Hezbollah and Iraqi militia operations, forming a unified "Axis of Resistance" front;
3. Strong strategic signaling: Announcing entry into a new phase of confrontation implies Iran is unwilling to back down, raising the risk of ongoing escalation of conflict.
