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 Palestine Chronicle reports that Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced shortly after midnight that it had launched Wave 37 of Operation “True Promise 4.”
“ByPalestine Chronicle Staff Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced shortly after midnight Tuesday–Wednesday that it had launched Wave 37 of Operation “True Promise 4,” describing it as the most intense strike carried out since the beginning of the war”
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.
The statement said strikes occurred “on targets in Tel Aviv and other locations inside Israel.”
“ByPalestine Chronicle Staff Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced Monday that it had carried out the 33rd wave of Operation True Promise 4, targeting Israeli and US positions as the regional war continues to escalate”
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 Palestine Chronicle detailed the weaponry and an apparent doctrinal shift.
“ByPalestine Chronicle Staff Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced shortly after midnight Tuesday–Wednesday that it had launched Wave 37 of Operation “True Promise 4,” describing it as the most intense strike carried out since the beginning of the war”
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.
The IRGC said the assault “continued for at least three hours.”
“ByPalestine Chronicle Staff Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced Monday that it had carried out the 33rd wave of Operation True Promise 4, targeting Israeli and US positions as the regional war continues to escalate”
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
On the question of numbering — 33rd, 37th or 47th wave — the provided article only refers to “Wave 37.”
“ByPalestine Chronicle Staff Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced shortly after midnight Tuesday–Wednesday that it had launched Wave 37 of Operation “True Promise 4,” describing it as the most intense strike carried out since the beginning of the war”
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.
