Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced that the 37th wave of Operation “True Promise 4” was the most intense and heaviest since the start of the war, targeting zionist and US positions across the region with heavy warheads.
According to the IRGC, the operation included the use of the heavy Khorramshahr-4 missile in a multi-launch strike against US and zionist military infrastructure.
The statement said the wave targeted the Ha’ela Satellite Communication Center south of Tel Aviv for the second time since the beginning of the war on Iran, alongside military sites in Be’er Ya’akov, al-Quds, and Haifa.
The IRGC added that the same wave also struck several US targets in Erbil, in Iraq’s Kurdistan region, as well as facilities linked to the headquarters of the US Navy’s Fifth Fleet, based in Manama, Bahrain. Iranian forces stressed that operations would continue with increasing intensity, declaring that throughout the ongoing war, they “will pursue nothing short of complete victory.”
Regional impacts and reported interceptions
The Saudi Arabian Ministry of Defense said its air defenses intercepted ballistic missiles and drones during the attacks. Separately, impacts were reported in Erbil amid the broader wave of strikes against US-linked positions in the region.
In central occupied Palestine, zionist media outlets reported that a direct hit to a military base near Tel Aviv, while footage circulating on social media showed dozens of bomblets descending toward urban centers.
Amid the 37th wave, which reportedly lasted for 3 hours, The Washington Post, citing an internal US State Department assessment, parts of the US embassy compound in Riyadh that were struck by a drone attack were described as “beyond repair”.
Meanwhile, Reuters reported that satellite imagery company Planet Labs expanded restrictions on access to its images after photographs circulated online showing damage to US military bases in the region. The developments come as Iran continues its campaign of retaliatory strikes following the US-Israeli aggression on the Islamic Republic, with Tehran signaling that operations will persist until its strategic objectives are achieved.
