BAKU, Azerbaijan, June 24. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), colloquially referred to as SEPAH, has declared the execution of a strategic aerial operation involving the launch of 14 ballistic missiles targeting Israeli territory during the nocturnal hours, Trend reports.
The IRGC disseminated this communiqué regarding the 21st iteration of "True Promise III," a protracted operational endeavor. The communiqué indicated that strategic military installations and logistical supply depots affiliated with Israel were engaged during this operational phase. It underscored that the Iranian Armed Forces are keeping their ear to the ground and have their eyes peeled on the moves of the other side.
