According to the IRGC, this latest wave was conducted in memory of the 84 martyrs of the Iranian Navy's Dena destroyer, which was attacked by a torpedo from the US Navy off the coast of Sri Lanka on March 4.
The Sunday’s operation involved a combined strike utilizing 10 hypersonic Fattah and Qadr missiles, as well as destructive drones aimed at US terrorist forces stationed at the Al-Dhafra base, which has provided intelligence and support during aggressive attacks against Iran.
The IRGC has also targeted the Zionist regime’s regional command and control centers and the domestic front management center of Israel.
The IRGC asserted that these sustained and powerful attacks against the US and Israeli targets, centers and interests will continue unabated until the aggressors are compelled to surrender and face punishment.
The US and the Zionist regime launched a large-scale unprovoked military campaign against Iran following the assassination of Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei, along with several senior military commanders and civilians on February 28.
The attacks have involved extensive aerial strikes on both military and civilian locations across Iran, causing significant casualties and widespread damage to infrastructure.
In response, the Iranian Armed Forces have carried out retaliatory operations, targeting American and Israeli positions in the occupied territories and at regional bases with waves of missiles and drones.
