The Islamic Revolution Guard Corps(IRGC) in Iran issued the fourth statement about its targeting of one of the main headquarters of the Israeli Mossad in Kurdistan, Iraq. It stated: "Iran's Aerospace Force launched 24 ballistic missiles yesterday, which hit their targets."

According to the statement, the IRGC targeted the headquarters of Mossad spies in Kurdistan, Iraq, and the headquarters of terrorist leaders and members linked to the recent terrorist attacks in Iran, mainly ISIS terrorist cells.

"Four Kheybar Shekan ballistic missiles were launched from Khuzestan toward terrorist strongholds in Idlib, Syria. Another four missiles were launched from western Iran and seven from northwest Iran toward Mossad spy bases in Iraqi Kurdistan. As well as nine various missiles launched on terror group strongholds in occupied regions of Syria," the IRGC stated.

The statement concluded by assuring the Iranian people that the operations of the IRGC will continue until the last drop of blood is avenged for the martyrs of Iran. 

The details of the operation were the focus of a phone call between the Commander of the Iranian Revolution Guard  Corps' Space Air Force, Brigadier General Amir Ali Hajizadeh, and the Commander of the IRGC, Major General Hossein Salami.

Hajizadeh addressed Salami by saying: "Sir, I inform you that at exactly midnight, Al Hamdullilah, the whole operation was completed successfully," before explaining to him the details of the operation.

In the same context, the Commander of the IRGC's Muhammad Rasulullah Corps, Brigadier General Hassan Hassan Zadeh, announced in today’s meeting of the Tehran City Council that Iran will respond to any attack by its enemies against the Iranian people, whether it be on a narrow or large scale.

Hassan Zadeh said, "Last night, the headquarters of Mossad and terrorists were destroyed, and this action means to them that Iran is monitoring all their attempts, and that they must refrain from committing any mistake against Iran." 

He stressed that the IRGC strikes will continue until Iran's enemies are thwarted and regretful, pointing out that the IRGC was able, in the shortest period, to implement the directives of the Leader of the Revolution (Sayyed Ali Khamenei) and respond to the enemies, as requested by the families of the Kerman martyrs.

Retaliation

Senior Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) commander Seyyed Razi Mousavi was martyred in an Israeli airstrike on Syria's Damascus on December, 25,2023.

Seyyed Mousavi was one of the oldest IRGC commanders in Syria and he was close to the commander of the IRGC's elite Quds Force, martyr Lieutenant General Qassem Soleimani. 

The Iranian commander was martyred after the Israeli occupation launched three missiles at his location in the suburbs of the Syrian capital of Damascus.

Following Mousavi's assassination, and on the fourth anniversary of the martyrdom of Iranian General Qassem Soleimani, 93 people were killed in an explosion in the Iranian city of Kerman as Iranians flooded the streets marching toward Soleimani's gravesite. 

ISIS later assumed responsibility for the terror bombings.
