Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) carried out the 60th wave of Operation True Promise 4, targeting US regional bases and occupied territories, in what officials described as a complex and impactful operation. The operation was launched to avenge the martyrdom of the head of the Basij Mostazafan Organization, General Gholamreza Soleimani, following a US-Israeli aggression.

The IRGC announced that wave 60 was conducted as a hybrid operation, targeting US bases across the region and in the occupied Palestinian territories.

Officials emphasized that the operation is a direct response to the blood of the martyred Basij commander and is part of a continuous effort to strike centers of aggression against Iran, warning the US and “Israel” that the Basij’s fighters “will not leave the blood of the martyr unavenged” and vowed to continue the path of resistance against global arrogance and international Zionism.

Targeting US military bases in the Middle East
Wave 60 struck multiple US military bases that have previously been used to launch attacks on Iran. Targets included:

Al-Udeid base in Qatar
Al-Azraq base in Jordan
Al Dhufra base in Abu Dhabi
Ali al Salem base in Kuwait
Al-Kharj base in Saudi Arabia
The operation used long and medium-range missile systems, including Emad, Qiam, Zulfiqar, and Dezful, alongside cruise missiles and suicide drones, demonstrating precision and coordination.

In addition to US bases, the wave targeted an Israeli air logistics and supply center in Ashdod and the Rafael arms complex using Emad and Qadr missile systems.

The IRGC reaffirmed that the assassinations of loyal Basij members will not deter tens of millions of zealous Iranian Basij members, and that operations will continue until aggressors surrender.

IRGC deploys Hajj Qassem missiles in wave 59
The Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) announced on Tuesday the launch of wave 59 of Operation True Promise 4, deploying the Hajj Qassem missiles, in tribute to Martyr Hajj Qassem Soleimani.

The wave, according to the IRGC, marks a new phase of destructive strikes across the region, particularly targeting the US-Zionist enemy. The statement emphasized that the arrogance of the oppressors will be shattered on the battlefield and in public arenas.

According to the statement, the latest wave was carried out under the blessed call of “Ya Haidar Karrar”, and was dedicated to the martyrs of Iran’s Aerospace Force. The operation targeted key sites in Beit Shemesh, Tel Aviv, and occupied al-Quds, in addition to US military bases in Al Udeid, Ali Al Salem, Fujairah, Sheikh Issa, and Erbil.

The operation was executed using precise missiles such as Qadr, Emad, Fattah, and Hajj Qassem, alongside armed drones, as part of focused impact operations, which were successfully carried out and used in both wave 59 and 60.
