On June 13th, Iran launched powerful attacks targeting Israel as part of Operation True Promise 3, a special military operation initiated in response to Israel’s earlier attack on Iran. In these latest attacks, Iran utilized various types of modern missiles and smart drones. In a statement released by Iran’s Revolutionary Guard, it was mentioned that Khaibar (Qadr-H) missiles were used in the attack, and that new, extraordinary tactics were employed. Consequently, the statement claimed that significant damage was successfully inflicted upon Israel.
The Revolutionary Guard stated that they had targeted important locations in the northern, southern, and central regions of the Jewish state. They also mentioned that future military operations would continue to employ special tactics, focusing on exploiting weaknesses in Israel’s air defense systems. The statement added that Iran’s attacks would intensify day by day. Furthermore, Iran declared that drone attacks would not cease even for a moment, and that the enemy would always have to live in a state of fear.
Some Israeli newspapers reported that Iran’s attacks had caused significant damage to roads in various regions of the Jewish state. The attacks have forced Israeli residents to seek shelter in bunkers. For the first time since the confrontations began, air raid sirens sounded continuously for 35 minutes in Israeli towns. Reports also noted that the Israeli air defense system had failed to intercept Iran’s latest missiles.
In the most recent attacks, Iran reportedly used Khaibar Shikan, Emad, Qadr, and Fattah-1 class missiles. These attacks caused damage to Safed, Tel Aviv, Ashkelon, Ashdod, and Beit She’an, areas occupied by Israel. An attack on a power plant in Ashdod resulted in power outages across a large part of the Jewish state.
To date, more than 400 Iranians have been martyred in Israel’s attacks against Iran. The majority of these casualties were civilians. Among the martyrs were senior military commanders and nuclear scientists. So far, 24 Israelis have been killed in the attacks.
