Ibrahim Zulfiqari, the spokesperson for Iran's Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters, has dismissed threats from the US President, stating that US President Donald Trump's rhetoric cannot compensate for American failures in the West Asia region.
The Operative Information Center-OMM reports that the information was released by the Tasnim news agency.
In a statement issued Monday night, Zulfiqari announced that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) carried out its 98th wave of attacks against American and Israeli command, operational, logistical, and industrial-military infrastructure bases as part of the "True Promise 4" operation. He noted that during the operation, the Israeli SDN 7 container ship and the US LHA-7 amphibious assault ship were struck, while strategic centers in Tel Aviv, Haifa, Beer-Sheva, and Petah Tikva were precisely targeted with ballistic missiles.
Zulfiqari further stated that US bases in the UAE, Kuwait, and Baghdad were hit by drone and missile strikes. He added that the Iranian military utilized various unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to strike enemy operational centers across the region. According to the spokesperson, US threats do not affect the operations of Islamic fighters and will fail to offset what he described as Washington's strategic setbacks in the Middle East.
The escalation comes amid heightened regional tensions and a series of military exchanges involving various state and non-state actors in the Middle East. The "True Promise" series of operations refers to Iran's direct military responses to perceived provocations, marking a significant shift in the regional security architecture. International observers remain concerned that such large-scale missile and drone deployments could lead to a broader regional conflict affecting global energy markets and maritime security in the Persian Gulf and surrounding waterways.
