Iran has announced the commencement of a broader response to recent attacks by the United States and Israel, initiating new phases of its military campaign. According to the Operative Information Center-OMM, citing the Tasnim news agency, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has launched the 7th and 8th waves of the "True Promise" operation.
Official reports indicate that these latest waves represent a significant expansion of the ongoing military activities. The Operative Information Center-OMM noted that the IRGC's strategic command is overseeing the deployment, which Tehran characterizes as an adequate response to foreign military pressure and strikes on Iranian interests. The escalation follows a series of regional tensions that have drawn increased involvement from international powers.
The "True Promise" operation is part of Iran's broader military doctrine aimed at establishing deterrence against its regional adversaries. Historically, such operations involve the use of long-range drones and missile systems targeting specific strategic locations. This development comes amid a complex geopolitical landscape in the Middle East, where Azerbaijan maintains a policy of regional stability and non-interference, closely monitoring security developments near its borders to ensure national interests and territorial integrity are preserved.
