The IRGC said in a statement on Friday that the latest operation was conducted as part of Iran's continuing retaliatory campaign against US military targets in the region.
According to the statement, the IRGC Aerospace Force launched the 15th wave of Operation Nasr-2, dedicating the operation to the victims of the recent US crimes against the Iranian people.
The IRGC said the operation was intended to punish the "aggressor" and the "child-killing US military," and involved a heavy surprise strike on the Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar.
It noted that the attack completely destroyed a long-range radar system and several strategic US aerial refueling aircraft, while inflicting serious damage on several other aircraft stationed at the base.
The statement also warned that the US and the regional countries hosting American military bases would pay a "very heavy and devastating price" for crossing Iran's red lines by attacking civilians and civilian infrastructure. It further warned that, should such attacks continue, Iran would launch even more crushing retaliatory operations that would become enduring milestones in the history of warfare.
The latest operation came as the IRGC continued expanding Operation Nasr-2, a series of retaliatory strikes launched in response to recent US attacks on Iran.
During the 11th wave, the IRGC Aerospace Force said it struck a US special operations command center in Syria's al-Tanf region, destroying a radar system and several special operations helicopters in retaliation for the killing of seven Iranian Army personnel in a US missile strike on the Bampur base in southeastern Iran.
The 12th wave targeted a US military base in Kuwait, where the IRGC said its forces struck missile-defense radar systems, ammunition depots, HIMARS launchers and stored missiles, saying the attack ignited a massive fire at the facility.
The campaign later expanded to Oman and Jordan. In the 13th wave, the IRGC Navy said it destroyed US maritime and air-control radars on Salamah rocks and in Oman’s Al-Ghanam area. During the 14th wave, the IRGC announced ballistic missile and drone strikes against US military facilities in Jordan, destroying several American fighter jets and aerial refueling aircraft while damaging others in response to attacks launched from US bases there against civilian targets in southern Iran.
