In a statement on Wednesday, the IRGC said the latest phase was staged by the Corps' Aerospace Force in support of the "proud offensives," carried out by Lebanon's Hezbollah resistance movement against Israeli targets, and the residents of southern Lebanon, who have been bearing the brunt of Israeli aggression.

"Strategic points and military centers located in the northern occupied territories were smashed under the heavy and sustained missile attacks of the IRGC's Aerospace Force," the statement read.

The IRGC said the military command of the Zionist army in the northern city of Safed, responsible for coordinating attacks and defenses along the territories' northern borders, was among the primary targets.

Series of pre-announced operations begins

The statement described the strikes as the opening of a series of pre-announced operations against the "child-killing Zionist regime."

The Corps said northern assembly points of Zionist forces and the Gaza belt would be subjected to heavy missile and drone attacks, emphasizing that the IRGC would not relent the slightest while it carries out this bout of counterstrikes.

The IRGC further stated that targets in central occupied territories, including Tel Aviv, Kiryat Shmona, and Bnei Brak, alongside US military bases of Ali al-Salem and Arifjan in Kuwait, al-Azraq in Jordan, and Sheikh Isa in Bahrain, were struck with liquid- and solid-fuel precision missiles and attack drones.

"This wave continues…," the statement concluded in a sign of unquenched resolve.

Operation True Promise 4 began on February 28, momentarily after the United States and the Israeli regime started their latest round of unprovoked aggression targeting the Islamic Republic.

The Corps has vowed to sustain the reprisal until "complete victory."
