Israel is experiencing its harshest nights since the start of the war.

Southern and central Israel endured a difficult night due to missile waves launched by the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps in response to the assassination of Ali Larijani, Secretary General of the Supreme National Security Council, and Basij forces commander Gholam Soleimani in an Israeli airstrike yesterday, with the Holon area in central Israel hit by the missiles and photos showing extensive destruction and fires burning in buildings and vehicles.

The night was the fiercest yet in terms of Iranian missile waves, which reached about one wave per hour, according to Al Jazeera's Tehran correspondent Abdul Fattah Faid.

The last night's waves relied more on heavy missiles, especially Khorramshahr 4, which carries a warhead weighing two tons, and they also included new cluster missiles not used before, with speeds up to Mach 13, according to Faid.

Fars News Agency cited IRGC sources saying it targeted a prominent figure in the Security Cabinet, and that the latest strikes hit more than 100 Israeli sites.

These strikes represented a practical and swift response to Iran's threat to retaliate for the assassination of Larijani and Soleimani, and to confirm that its stockpile of missiles and launch platforms remains ample, according to Faid.

Political and military messages: Through these dense waves, the Iranians aimed to send a message that they are proceeding to defend their country and its sovereignty, as Tehran officials saying they are ready to continue the war without a time limit and in any arena.

And with the United States and Israel resorting to assassination of political and diplomatic leaders after the targeting list had been exhausted, Iranian responses send messages that the new leadership is more hardline and believes that the Americans are not willing for peace, as Faid said.

In Israel, authorities deployed more troops and civil defense to deal with the fires and destruction caused by the Iranian missiles in Holon and the Moshav Hashivah in central Israel.

A massive fire broke out in one building in Holon due to the impact of a warhead from an Iranian cluster missile with heavy explosive heads, according to Al Jazeera's correspondent Mohammad Khairy, citing Israeli media.

Al Jazeera aired images showing the fires and rising smoke in buildings and vehicles, as the central region experienced at least four rocket salvos on Tuesday night, while civil defense and firefighting teams tried to cope with the damage and search for wounded, Khairy said.

The Iranian attacks also targeted southern Israel and the occupied city of Jerusalem, whose sirens repeatedly sounded that night, while the Israeli ambulance service reported the deaths of two people and injuries to others in rocket attacks on Ramat Gan, south of Tel Aviv.

After the assassination of Larijani and Soleimani, the IRGC Aerospace Force commander Brigadier General Majid Mousavi announced the start of what he described as a rapid pace of devastating and influential strikes in the region against the American Zionist enemy.

In turn, the Guards announced launching the 61st wave of the operation The Honest Promise 4, saying it was a response to the assassination of the two prominent figures.
