IRGC announces 27th wave of Operation True Promise 4 targeting American, Israeli positions

The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) has announced carrying out the 27th wave of Operation True Promise 4, its ongoing set of retaliatory strikes against fresh unprovoked US-Israeli aggression towards the Islamic Republic.

The Corps made the announcement in a statement on Saturday, describing the latest phase as coordinated drone and missile strikes against American and Israeli targets.

According to the statement, the strikes included missile counteroffensives against Israeli military objectives in the northern part of the occupied territories.

The IRGC said the targets were struck using newly developed solid-fuel missiles deployed by its Aerospace Division.

“In this strategic and multidimensional operation, Zionist military targets in [the occupied city of] Haifa were struck by the IRGC's Aerospace Division’s new solid-fuel Kheibar-Shekan missiles, which possess terminal guidance capability up to the point of impact,” the statement read.

Drone units target American military interests

The IRGC also reported deployment of unmanned aerial systems against a location where American forces are stationed.

The statement said drone units “successfully targeted the location where American forces are stationed in ‘Marina,’ in the vicinity of the buildings of the ‘Warner Brothers’ company.”

IRGC Navy targets Fifth Fleet facilities

Meanwhile, the Corps said its naval forces had conducted strikes against facilities connected to the United States’ Fifth Fleet in Bahrain.

“Additionally, the IRGC Navy struck the command unit of the Fifth Fleet’s unmanned surface vessel unit and the military support hangars of American terrorist forces at Salman Port [in the Persian Gulf kingdom],” the statement said.

Israel using settlers as 'human shields'

The statement also featured information about the situation in the occupied territories amid the Corps' unrelenting reprisal.

“Field monitoring by the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps indicates that the Zionist regime is attempting to create a human shield to protect its military personnel by confining residents of the occupied territories to northern and central areas,” it said.

The IRGC further said the strikes had triggered widespread emergency alerts.

“Following Iran’s smart attacks, conditions in the region and the occupied territories have turned into a state of ‘siren after siren,’” the statement read.

Iranian armed forces and resistance groups in the region continued their retaliatory military operations against the US and the Israeli regime on Saturday, March 7.

Armed Forces ‘lying in wait’

The IRGC concluded its statement by saying Iranian forces remained prepared for further developments.

“Units of the Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic are lying in wait for American forces with precision and planning.”

True Promise 4 began momentarily after the launch of the unlawful foreign aggression last Saturday. The operation has seen the Corps target sensitive and strategic targets throughout the occupied territories as well as the United States' regional interests with hundreds of ballistic missiles and attack drones.

Among others, prominent targets have featured hostile objects in the city of Tel Aviv, the holy occupied city of al-Quds, and the occupied city of Be'er Sheva, which serves as the Israeli regime's technology hub, as well as the US's Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier and an American destroyer in the Indian Ocean.
