The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) warned Friday that 'any violation by the enemy will be met with historic defeat,' as Israeli airstrikes continue in Lebanon. The threat follows a wave of IDF strikes across southern Lebanon overnight.
The IRGC's threat, delivered through official channels Friday morning, comes as the IDF continues a large-scale wave of airstrikes across southern Lebanon — the most intensive since the 2006 war. Israeli jets struck dozens of Hezbollah targets overnight, including rocket launchers, observation posts, and command centers in six towns along the border. The IRGC statement did not specify a particular response but framed the current escalation as a decisive moment, warning Israel of 'unprecedented consequences.' The threat from Tehran adds a new dimension to the confrontation, which until now has been largely confined to Israel and Hezbollah. No IRGC personnel have been reported killed or directly engaged in the current round of fighting.
