IRGC Launches Missile Attack On Israeli, US Positions — Sources Disagree Whether 33rd Or 47th Wave

10 March, 2026.Iran.2 sources

Key Takeaways

  • IRGC announced launching a wave of Operation 'True Promise 4'
  • Sources disagree whether the wave was numbered 33 or 37
  • IRGC said the wave targeted Israeli military and US-linked positions across the region

IRGC claims Wave 37

The outlet called the action “the most intense strike carried out since the beginning of the war” and framed it as part of a broader campaign responding to a joint US-Israeli war targeting Iranian territory and infrastructure.

It described the new wave as continuing “the escalating confrontation between Iran, Israel, and the United States that began on February 28.”

Reported targets

According to the report, the IRGC said the operation targeted Israeli military sites and US-linked positions across the region.

It specifically mentioned attacks on positions associated with the United States such as “the headquarters of the US Fifth Fleet and sites in Erbil.”

Weapons and doctrine

The IRGC said the operation “relied heavily on long-range ballistic missiles and heavy warheads, some weighing approximately one ton.”

It listed Kheibar, Qader and the heavy Khorramshahr ballistic missile among the systems used.

The report noted Brigadier General Majid Mousavi had announced Iran “would no longer launch missiles carrying warheads weighing less than one ton.”

Duration and intensity

The outlet described Wave 37 as prolonged and intense.

It involved multiple phases and salvos and was described as “one of the longest sustained missile operations carried out since the beginning of the war.”

The report said this signaled Iran’s intent to expand the scale and intensity of its strikes.

Wave-numbering ambiguity

The user’s framing that “sources disagree whether 33rd or 47th wave” cannot be confirmed from the Palestine Chronicle excerpt alone.

Because no other sources were supplied, I cannot verify or reconcile different wave counts and must flag that as unresolved based on the available material.
