“As we had announced (before), in response to the brazen aggression of the US and Zionist regime against Islamic Iran, all the (Israeli) occupied territories and the bases of the criminal US in the region were targeted by crushing attacks of Iranian missiles,” Major General Ali Abdollahi said on Saturday.
“This operation will continue uninterruptedly until the absolute defeat of the enemy,” he stated.
Major General Abdollahi added that given the US and Israeli aggression on Iran, all American bases, resources and interests in the entire region will be deemed legitimate targets for the Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
He also urged the brave and heroic Iranian nation to remain calm, vowing that the Armed Forces will decisively and powerfully defend the country, nation and national interests.
Earlier, the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) announced the launch of a massive wave of missile and drone strikes on Israeli-occupied territories.
In response to the aggression by the hostile and criminal enemy against the Islamic Republic of Iran, the first wave of Iran’s extensive missile and drone strikes targeting the occupied territories has begun, the IRGC said in a statement.
