Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) announced late Monday night the launch of the ninth wave of Operation True Promise 3, affirming that the attacks would continue uninterrupted until dawn on Tuesday.

According to Iran’s Tasnim news agency, a new wave of Iranian missile strikes was launched toward the occupied Palestinian territories in response to Israeli aggression.

The agency released a video showing the moment Iranian missiles crossed the skies over the occupied West Bank en route to targets in the occupied territories.

Simultaneously, Israeli media reported that sirens were sounding in southern Golan amid fears of drone infiltration.

Later, the IRGC announced that they targeted the base from which the Israeli aggression against the state broadcasting authority was launched.

The media also reported that the so-called Home Front Command is investigating the reason behind the delayed alert, which was issued only three minutes before sirens were activated.
