The commander of the Aerospace Force of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC), Brigadier General Seyyed Majid Mousavi, said this in a post on X on Friday.

“The commander of Aerospace Force of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) says it launched a massive retaliatory operation against Israel, effectively disrupting the regime’s aerospace monitoring capabilities”

He said the missiles were fired 'at specified targets in the occupied territories' on the 'night of destiny', observed on Thursday night in Iran.

Mousavi said the operation disrupted and destroyed key aerospace monitoring and surveillance systems of the regime.

He claimed that 'a considerable part of the regime's airspace is now under our control.'

It reports that Iranian armed forces have vowed to keep the war on with the United States and the 'Israeli regime' until they regret launching the aggression.

The article frames these as Iran's stated justification and intent to continue operations.

The Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters said last week that Iran possesses advanced weapons with high precision.

It said these capabilities are beyond the enemy's assessment of Iran's military power.
