Iran threatens to target the economic interests of America and Israel in the region.

The spokesman for the Khatam al-Anbiya headquarters, the central military operations room, said today, Wednesday, that Israel targeted one of the Iranian banks last night, and said in response that Tehran will target economic and banking centers affiliated with the United States and Israel in the region.

State media quoted spokesman Ibrahim Dhu al-Faqari as saying, "After their failed campaign, the terrorist American army and the brutal Zionist entity targeted one of the country's banks."

Iranian media reported that American and Israeli strikes hit a bank in Tehran during the night, killing an unspecified number of employees.

The semi-official Mehr news agency reported that an administrative building belonging to Bank Sepah, one of Iran's largest state banks with historical ties to the military, was attacked in Tehran during the night.

Early today the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps announced the launch of a new missile wave as part of the operation Iran calls "Al-Wa'd al-Sadiq 4," saying it will continue for at least three hours and that it represents the 37th wave of the operation.

The IRGC said the 37th wave is "the fiercest and heaviest" since the start of the confrontation, noted that it included an unprecedented intensity of fire compared to previous salvos, and announced the use of a new generation of the "Khoramshahr" missile, which it said carries two tons of explosives.

The IRGC also threatened to target American tech companies in the region and to begin targeting technological infrastructure, and Al Jazeera's correspondent in Tehran, Suhaib al-Asa, said the IRGC published a list of companies to be targeted including Google, Amazon, and Microsoft.

With this step, the war enters the stage of tit-for-tat retaliation that Iran had promised, which it said would include vital infrastructure in response to attacks on its infrastructure, according to al-Asa, who said this announcement takes the war toward greater escalation and expansion.

The war — which the United States and Israel began against Iran on February 28 — entered its 12th day, with Washington and Tel Aviv continuing to bomb Iranian cities and sites, while Tehran responds by launching waves of ballistic missiles and drones toward Israel and what it describes as "American interests in the region," resulting in deaths and injuries and causing damage to civilian sites including airports, ports, and buildings.

The targeted Arab countries have condemned these attacks and called for a halt.
