The Iranian Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) announced that it had seized an Israeli Hermes 900 drone using an advanced air defense system. The IRGC asserted that the aircraft was intercepted before it could carry out its combat mission.

In a statement, the IRGC said the unmanned aerial vehicle was brought down intact and fully armed, adding that it is now under the control of its Aerospace Force. The drone has been handed over to aerospace experts and engineers for examination and technical analysis.

The Hermes 900 is a medium-altitude, long-endurance drone widely used by "Israel" for surveillance and strike missions.

US, Israeli crimes against civilians won't go unanswered: IRGC

In a separate statement, the IRGC warned that the crimes committed by the United States military and "Israel" against civilians over the past four days “will not go unanswered.” It stressed that the confrontation against Washington and "Israel" would continue at “deeper and more complex levels.”

The Guard Corps called on international bodies and human rights organizations to break their silence over violations and civilian killings, urging legal action against those responsible.

According to the statement, US and Israeli forces carried out a series of attacks targeting schools, hospitals, sports stadiums, restaurants, and public halls. It also asserted that residential homes were struck in the cities of Oshnavieh, Urmia, Kangavar, and the al-Qasmiya neighborhood.

The IRGC further claimed that a Tomahawk missile was used in an attack on Oshnavieh, while a US air-to-ground missile reportedly struck a civilian vehicle in the city of Salman, killing five people.

The statements said that more than 700 Iranian citizens have been killed and others wounded as a result of US-Israeli attacks.

Meanwhile, Iran continues its military campaign dubbed “True Promise 4,” targeting US bases, centers, and radar systems in the region, in addition to strikes deep inside "Israel", according to the IRGC.

IRGC launches 15th, 14th waves of Operation True Promise 4

Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) has destroyed “hostile” headquarters in Iraq’s Kurdistan Region using 30 drones, warning both the hosting and executing parties of a decisive response.

In a statement published Tuesday, the IRGC said it would show “no leniency whatsoever” toward any entities that host or carry out actions targeting Iran’s national security, stressing that any aggression would be met swiftly.

The statement added that facilities belonging to “anti-revolution groups” in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq were “completely destroyed.” These groups, the IRGC claimed, had been planning to infiltrate Iranian territory to carry out acts of sabotage.

The Guard Corps said the operation followed “precise intelligence efforts,” with 30 drones launched to strike their designated targets accurately.

Earlier on Tuesday, the IRGC announced the completion of the 15th wave of Operation True Promise 4, carried out by its naval forces through what it described as special operational measures targeting US forces across the region.

According to an IRGC statement, 10 vital and strategic targets at Sheikh Isa Air Base in Bahrain, including command centers and equipment facilities used by US forces, were directly struck by Iranian missiles.

The statement added that field monitoring and satellite reconnaissance showed the base’s infrastructure had been rendered completely out of service, with reports pointing to internal disarray and the withdrawal of US personnel from the site.

Meanwhile, AFP correspondents reported hearing multiple explosions on Tuesday in both Manama and Doha, as sirens sounded across the Bahraini capital.

The 15th wave follows in rapid succession from earlier strikes. The IRGC announced the 14th wave early morning on Tuesday, also targeting Sheikh Isa Air Base in a combined drone and missile assault.

The IRGC said 20 drones and three missiles struck their intended targets, destroying the base's main command and HQ, setting its fuel tanks ablaze, with plumes of fire and smoke visible over a wide area.

Hours earlier, overnight Monday, the IRGC declared the launch of the 13th wave of the operation, targeting US Marine Corps positions at Camp Arifjan in Kuwait using one-way attack drones.

The statement also reported that remaining facilities linked to the US naval fleet in Bahrain were struck and destroyed by six additional one-way drones. The IRGC further stated that the fuel tanker Athens Nova remained ablaze in the Strait of Hormuz after being hit by two drones in an earlier strike.
