Iranian Missiles Pierce the Heart of Tel Aviv and Haifa

TEHRAN (Defapress) – 2 days ago, the Zionist regime, with all its capabilities and equipment, launched a criminal attack supported by the United States and some European Troika countries. As a result, a number of our beloved commanders, scientists, and civilians were martyred.

Following these attacks, the illegitimate Israeli regime, brimming with what it perceived as power, issued a message through its Minister of War, Israel Katz, claiming that the "apocalyptic war" had begun.

After these events, the Islamic Republic of Iran's Army took to the field in a defensive capacity, and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) in an offensive capacity, taking control of the situation. In this regard, the first wave of missile operations in the combined offensive operation "True Promise 3" commenced with heavy attacks on Tel Aviv, hitting 150 targets.

However, the second wave of attacks, which began early this morning, focused on strategic areas, particularly the Zionist regime's refineries. In these attacks, the Haifa gas refinery and the energy and fighter jet fuel distribution center of the Zionist regime were hit, leading to disruptions in the northern occupied territories.

Additionally, in the second wave of missile operations against the Zionist regime, Tel Aviv was targeted with heavy missile attacks, and a multi-story tower in southern Tel Aviv was completely destroyed. Field reports indicate that power in southern Tel Aviv has been completely cut off.

The missile attacks by the IRGC Aerospace Force early this morning were mostly concentrated on the northern occupied territories, where heavy Iranian missiles hit the Zionist settlements of Herzliya, Nahariya, and Kiryat Shmona.

One of the significant features of the missile attacks on the occupied territories was the precision and high explosive power of the Iranian missiles. Field reports indicate that "Kheibar Shekan," "Emad," and "Hajj Qassem" missiles effectively hit their targets.

The warhead weight of Iranian ballistic missiles has reached close to two tons due to upgrades, which clearly demonstrates the destructive power of ballistic missiles in the occupied territories. The widespread destruction in the occupied territories clearly shows that the ballistic missiles of the Islamic Republic effectively carried out their assigned missions.

An important point to consider is that military experts powerfully assessed the capability of Iran's ballistic missiles in attacking the occupied territories. Furthermore, Pakistani army commanders described Iran's military power in attacking the occupied territories as astonishing.

General Khalid Naeem Lodhi, former Deputy Minister of Defense of Pakistan, stated in this regard: "Iran's operation is astonishing and a source of pride for friendly countries and the Islamic world."

He added, "The Israelis were under the impression that after their attacks, Iran would need time to assess its situation; however, the Iranian armed forces launched a surprise operation against Israel, which was very astonishing."

Another notable point is the synergy of the Islamic Republic of Iran's Army in defending the country's airspace to better facilitate the missile operations. Maintaining calm and repelling enemy attacks internally plays a significant role in the successful execution of missile operations. In this regard, the Air Defense Force of the Islamic Republic of Iran's Army has played an important role and has intensified the impact of the IRGC Aerospace Force's missile attacks through tireless efforts.

Alongside the aforementioned points, it was a miscalculation by the Zionist regime to think that it could end everything in its favor with a swift criminal attack. However, the tables have turned, and the Zionist enemy is now in shock from Iran's heavy and widespread missile attacks.

Brigadier General Ahmad Vahidi, advisor to the Commander-in-Chief of the IRGC, stated in this regard: "Operation 'True Promise 3' will continue as long as necessary."

The Zionist regime is under such distress from the Islamic Republic's missile attacks that one Zionist newspaper appealed to the United States for support for Israel. However, there is another important point: the necessity of the continuation of the IRGC Aerospace Force's missile operations with new and hypersonic missiles, as some analysts believe that Iran has not yet used its trump cards in terms of missiles.

Seyed Mohammad Marandi, a strategic affairs analyst, referring to the new wave of Operation True Promise 3, said: "Nearly all missiles Iran fired in this wave were 20-30 year old models, but watch the single newer-generation missile that struck Haifa. Then watch the electricity go out."

Referring to the extensive missile capabilities of the Islamic Republic of Iran, he added: "Wait until Iran empties its old stockpile. Then things will get more interesting for the genocidal regime."

It appears that overall, the military operations of the Islamic Republic of Iran's Armed Forces in confronting the Zionist regime, which is supported by at least some regional countries, the European Troika countries (Germany, UK, and France), and the United States, have been managed favorably. It is hoped that this trend will continue until the complete victory of the Islamic Republic of Iran's Armed Forces against the American-Zionist-European enemy.
