Senior IRGC sources, cited by Iranian media, say that economic interests and infrastructure linked to Elon Musk in the Middle East — including in Arab states and Israel — have been added to Iran's new military target bank, a security field alert reports.
Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has formally expanded its military target list to include business interests linked to American-Israeli billionaire Elon Musk across the Middle East, according to Iranian media quoting senior IRGC sources.
The warning, which the report describes as a 'field security alert,' explicitly mentions Musk's economic assets in Arab states and Israel as now inside the regime's target bank. The statement does not specify particular companies or infrastructure, but the breadth of the claim — covering 'interests and economic infrastructure' — suggests a broad posture shift rather than a narrow operational directive.
As The Zioneer reported at 18:09 Jerusalem, Fars News Agency earlier circulated an unverified threat that Tehran considers all Musk-owned companies in the region, including Starlink, legitimate military targets. The current report, attributed directly to 'senior sources in the IRGC,' adds a layer of official framing to what was previously an outlet-level claim. The 'banks of military targets' language mirrors the IRGC's established doctrinal term for pre-planned strike sets.
The move comes amid a broader intensification of kinetic and rhetorical exchanges between Iran and the U.S.-Israel axis. The operational significance of the declaration remains unclear — whether it signals active targeting preparations or coercive signaling — and no independent confirmation of an actual change in IRGC strike plans exists as of 18:44 Jerusalem.
