The top advisor to the Commander-in-Chief of the Iranian Armed Forces, Brigadier General Ahamd Vahidi, discussed the extensive missile strikes launched by Iran's Islamic Revolution Guards Corps against Israel on Friday evening, as part of a military operation code-named 'Promise of Truth III.'
Vahidi explained that the highly precise operation targeted vital and strategic sites deep within Israeli territory and took place across multiple stages, according to what he announced in an interview broadcast on Iranian state television.
The Iranian military official confirmed that the strikes included the Nevatim Air Base, which he described as one of the pivotal bases of the Israeli Air Force, where F-35, F-16, and F-15 fighter jets were stationed, in addition to cargo and refueling aircraft, command and control centers, and units specialized in electronic warfare.
The attacks included the Israeli Ministry of Defense and some military industrial facilities used in the manufacture of weapons and military equipment targeting the people of the region, he said.
Vahidi added that the attacks struck over 150 targets, which were identified in advance based on accurate intelligence and bombed with successive waves of missiles and drones, in an operation he called 'complex and carefully coordinated.'
Vahidi also directly accused the US for the attack, asserting that, 'The Zionist entity would not have been able to carry out these attacks without direct American support.'
The US President's statements following the Israeli strike confirm Washington's involvement in the operation, he said, explaining that America's forces participated in intercepting Iranian missiles and provided direct assistance to the Israeli army.
Vahidi also revealed that some Israeli attacks on Iran were launched from Iraqi airspace and logistically funded by the US, which he called a blatant violation of regional sovereignty and direct participation in the aggression against his country.
