Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced the execution of the 78th wave of Operation “True Promise 4,” targeting locations in "Eilat", "Dimona", and northern "Tel Aviv", as well as several U.S. military bases in the region. The strikes employed precision-guided missiles of the Emad and Qadr multi-warhead types, in addition to suicide drones.
The IRGC stated that this wave “marks a distinct chapter in the history of the war,” emphasizing that it was carried out with the support of “the raised fists of the Iranian people in the streets” and “missiles of fighters on the ground,” dedicated to the people of Iran’s eastern regions, including North, Razavi, and South Khorasan, as well as Sistan and Baluchestan.
The statement highlighted that Tehran “conducts negotiations with the aggressors through missiles and firepower, from a position of strength and field influence,” noting that the majority of IRGC combat units, along with the Basij popular mobilization forces, have not yet entered the battle.
The IRGC warned that the entry of these forces, if necessary, will make the battlefield “more intense” and turn it into “inescapable hell” for the enemies. It also asserted that “the enemy’s plots to recover losses and alter the war’s equations in the coming hours will not go unnoticed,” vowing that “Iran’s severe strike will fall in the blink of an eye on anyone who ordered, executed, or followed any level of aggression.”
The 77th wave of strikes was previously carried out in honor of resistance martyrs, including IRGC spokesperson Ali Mohammad Naeini, Al-Qassam Brigades spokesperson Abu Ubaida, and Hezbollah media official Mohammad Afif, targeting Israeli-occupied sites in northern, central, and southern territories.
The IRGC also reported hitting U.S. military bases, including Ali Al-Salem, Al-Kharj, and Al-Dhafra, using solid-fuel precision missiles of the Zolfaghar type and attack drones, confirming the operations were fully successful.
Since February 28, Iran has responded within its legitimate rights to ongoing U.S.-Israeli aggression, which targets residential neighborhoods and infrastructure, resulting in hundreds of martyrs and thousands of wounded.
