The U.S. military announced it has completed the wave of strikes against Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) targets across Iran, according to a report by Ynet. U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) released footage of the strikes carried out overnight against IRGC infrastructure throughout the country.
U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) released footage early Wednesday of precision strikes against Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) targets across Iran and confirmed the operation has concluded. The footage, distributed by CENTCOM, shows strikes hitting IRGC military infrastructure at multiple locations. The announcement follows the official confirmation at 01:36 Jerusalem that the strike wave was complete, as The Zioneer reported earlier.
The operation unfolded over several hours on Tuesday evening. At 19:27 Jerusalem, The Zioneer reported that US forces had struck IRGC targets in southern Iran, with subsequent reports indicating over 50 US fighter jets and at least 100 missiles struck at least seven locations, including Chabahar, Bandar Abbas, and Konarak. As the night progressed, CENTCOM confirmed the strikes were ongoing, then at 01:36 Wednesday announced their completion. The footage now provides visual evidence of the operation's impact.
The strikes were conducted in response to recent IRGC attempts to target commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz and US personnel in the region, as CENTCOM stated. The operation marks a significant American military action on Iranian soil amid heightened tensions between Washington and Tehran, as The Zioneer has previously reported in the context of earlier exchanges.
Details of the scale of the operation and specific target damage have not been fully disclosed. Iranian state media claims of retaliation remain unverified. The full scope of the operation and any follow-up actions have not been stated in available reports.
