Wave 39 of Operation True Promise 4, launched by Iran's Islamic Revolution
Guard Corps (IRGC)
<https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/irgc--wave-37-of--true-promise-4--heaviest-since-start-of-wa>
in response to the US-Israeli aggression on its people and sovereignty, was
carried out in honor and memory of the fallen martyrs of Iran, including
Martyr Amir Mousavi, and struck US targets across the region, according to
an IRGC statement.

The IRGC said the operation involved strikes against US military positions
across the Gulf using multiple types of ballistic missiles, including the
multi-warhead Qadr, Khorramshahr, and Emad missiles.

According to the statement, US bases in the Gulf were destroyed during the
operation.

The IRGC also praised “the effective, heroic, and courageous attacks of the
resistance forces,” saying they complement the large-scale missile and
drone operations carried out by Iranian forces.

The results, in addition to the destruction of the intended targets,
included fear among Israeli settlers, who have been living under the
blaring of sirens for 11 days

since True Promise 4 was launched.

Meanwhile, the strategic Strait of Hormuz remains under the control of
Iran's naval forces. The IRGC has warned that "the US aggressors and their
partners have no right to pass through."

Over 100 US soldier casualties in Kuwait base

The IRGC further declared that two powerful and simultaneous missile
strikes targeted the Al-Udairi US helicopter base in Kuwait, as part of
wave 38 of their retaliatory operation.

The operation resulted in the deaths of a large number of US soldiers

as well as the injuries of over 100 personnel, who were transferred to
Jaber and Al-Mubarak hospitals in Kuwait city.

Moreover, the IRGC announced missile and drone strikes on US naval
infrastructure at Mina Salman port in Bahrain, home to the US Fifth Fleet,
including the main LIDS system.

Simultaneously, missile strikes reportedly targeted Patriot missile camps,
equipment warehouses, and housing and assembly centers used by US troops in
Mohammed Al-Ahmad Naval Base and Ali Al-Salem Air Base.

Wave 38, in essence, has eliminated the remaining US military presence in
the region, the IRGC stressed.
Israeli intelligence and military sites under fire

Meanwhile, the Iranian Army announced that it carried out drone strikes at
dawn targeting several military and intelligence sites belonging to the
Israeli military

.

Among the targets were the Israeli military intelligence organization Aman,
Unit 8200, the Green Pine radar, and the submarine headquarters building at
the naval base in Haifa.

According to the statement, the Aman headquarters is part of the Israeli
entity’s intelligence structure and played a role in identifying targets
and directing military operations in the aggression against Iran.

The army added that Unit 8200 is responsible for signals intelligence
gathering, monitoring digital communications, and conducting offensive
cyber operations.
Green Pine radar extensively damaged

The statement said Iranian forces caused extensive damage to the Green Pine
radar system, one of the main pillars of the Israeli missile defense
network used to counter Iranian missile attacks.

According to the Iranian army, the damage significantly reduces the
entity’s ability
<https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/true-promise-wave-34--regional-security-for-all-or-for-none>
to intercept Iranian missiles.

The army emphasized that operations against targets in the Zionist entity
have continued since early morning, stressing that Iranian armed forces
will not hesitate to defend Iran’s sovereignty, independence, and the
system of the Islamic Republic.

Meanwhile, over Tehran's skies, at least 104 US-Israeli drones have been
shot down, Iran's state television reported.
