Iran Launches "Real Commitment-4" 99th Operation Targeting Multiple U.S. and Israeli Objectives

On the 7th local time, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps of Iran issued a statement saying that in the 99th round of the "Real Commitment-4" operation, strikes were carried out against U.S. bases and targets located in the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz, as well as military forces and command control centers in the occupied Palestinian territories.

The statement noted that starting early that morning, the naval and aerospace forces of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps launched joint operations, firing ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and attack drones in response to the attacks on petrochemical facilities and some affiliated facilities in the Asaluyeh area of southern Iran.

It was reported that a large petrochemical complex in the Jubail area of Saudi Arabia, owned by U.S. companies, was struck by medium-range missiles and drones. Additionally, a container ship alleged to be linked to Israel, which was planning to transport military equipment via the port of Al-Hoceima in the UAE, was hit in a missile strike.

The statement also mentioned that the U.S. aircraft carrier strike group "Abraham Lincoln," deployed in the Indian Ocean, was also targeted by long-range cruise missiles.

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps stated that if the U.S. "crosses the red line," Iran's response will exceed the regional scope. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps claimed that it would not proactively target civilian objectives but would retaliate against attacks on civilian facilities. The statement also indicated that Iran no longer imposes limits on its strike targets. (Reporter: Li Jiannan, Li Zhao)
