The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said Saturday that Arab states that provided bases to the enemy for the assassination of Iran's leader are legitimate targets, calling for airstrikes on their leaders at home. The statement was published by the IRGC but did not specify a timeline.
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) issued a statement Saturday calling for airstrikes on Arab leaders inside their homes, accusing their countries of providing bases to the enemy for the assassination of Iran's leader. The statement, published on the IRGC's official channel, did not specify a timeline or target.
The IRGC has a history of threatening Arab states over their cooperation with the US and Israel. As The Zioneer has reported, the IRGC previously claimed to have struck military bases in Jordan, Kuwait, and Bahrain, and declared all units combat-ready. The new threat, however, is notably more personal, targeting the leaders themselves.
The statement's authenticity is not in question, but it remains unclear whether the IRGC has the capability or intent to carry out such strikes against Arab heads of state. No independent verification of operational plans is available.
