Nournews: The strikes targeted pre-determined locations in Arifjan, Al-Kharj, and the U.S. military logistics site (KGL) in response to attacks on Khorramshahr, as well as Patriot radar systems, P-8 reconnaissance aircraft hangars, fuel depots, MQ-9 drone hangars, and satellite communication dishes in Sheikh Isa and Ali Al-Salem. The operation employed suicide drones and achieved full success.

Earlier waves of True Promise Operation 4 had also targeted Israeli military support centers, drone production facilities, and strategic aerospace installations, including Ben Gurion Airbase and Rafael defense industries. These operations involved long- and medium-range missiles, drones, and cruise missiles, striking over 70 sites in the occupied Palestinian territories, including Haifa, Dimona, and Khedera.

In addition, an U.S. F-18 fighter jet was reportedly shot down over Chabahar by the Iranian Navy’s advanced air defense system, marking the fourth confirmed U.S. fighter kill by Iran’s domestically developed systems. Iranian forces also targeted U.S.-backed militias in Erbil and a U.S. naval group led by the Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier, forcing repositioning.

According to field reports, casualties among Israeli forces exceeded 2,500 dead or wounded following multiple waves of Iranian strikes. The IRGC emphasized that operations are ongoing, with continued targeting of strategic locations in northern Israel and U.S. positions across the region, asserting the defense of Iran’s sovereignty and national security.
