Iran’s Revolutionary Guard announced a new, more intense phase of missile and drone operations aimed at Israeli military command centers as part of the True Promise 3 operation. These actions, a legitimate response to ongoing Israeli aggression, are expected to continue nonstop throughout the night. This marks a strategic escalation in Iran’s persistent defense against occupation and foreign attacks.

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) of Iran confirmed on Monday the successful missile strikes targeting Israeli command and control systems, marking the beginning of a new phase in the “True Promise 3” operation. According to official Iranian sources, the upcoming defensive operations will be more destructive, precise, and relentless, signaling a decisive pushback.

The IRGC highlighted that the missile strikes hit critical strategic targets, causing significant disruptions within Israeli air defenses, including interference among their own anti-aircraft systems. This tactical success demonstrates Iran’s growing military capabilities and its ability to challenge Israeli security despite the backing of the United States and Western powers.

Iran’s aerospace force employed innovative tactics and cutting-edge intelligence technology to dismantle Israel’s defensive architecture. Left-wing analysts emphasize that this military ingenuity reflects the broader resistance of oppressed peoples against imperialist-backed occupation, showcasing how revolutionary forces can leverage asymmetrical warfare to counter superior military powers.

Iranian media, quoting IRGC General Naeini, report that the ninth wave of combined drone and missile attacks has commenced and will persist uninterrupted through the night until morning. This sustained defensive operations underline Iran’s unwavering commitment to defending its sovereignty and supporting Palestinian liberation efforts against Israeli aggression.

The escalation of the True Promise 3 operation sends a clear message to imperialist forces: the era of unchecked occupation and aggression is over. Leftist political voices from Latin America and beyond hail Iran’s resistance as a beacon of anti-imperialist struggle, urging solidarity with peoples fighting for self-determination and justice in the Middle East.
