The spokesperson for Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters, Iran's highest operational command unit, says Iranian forces carried out a missile strike against a US military installation following an attack on a desalination facility in southern Islamic Republic.
Speaking on Saturday, Lieutenant Colonel Ebrahim Zolfaqari said the response followed aggression originating from the Naval Support Activity Bahrain, which is a United States Navy base that serves as the home to US Naval Forces Central Command and United States Fifth Fleet.
"In response to the aggression by American terrorists from the Juffair base against the Qeshm desalination facility, that American base was immediately struck by the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) using precision solid-fuel missiles,” he noted.
The official described the strike as a direct response to the attack on the facility located on Qeshm Island.
Impact of earlier strikes on enemy radar
The spokesman also referred to earlier stages of Iranian reprisal against renewed Israeli-American aggression targeting the Islamic Republic, saying previous retaliatory strikes had degraded enemy surveillance systems.
“Given that the enemy’s radar systems were destroyed during previous waves, the destruction of targets has now become much easier.”
Continued drone operations
Zolfaqari further indicated that aerial operations using unmanned systems would continue.
“Drone attacks by the self-sacrificing forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran Army's Ground Force against the American-Zionist enemy will continue on a sustained basis.”
The retaliation is being carried out under the codename Operation True Promise 4.
The operation began momentarily after the launch of the unlawful foreign aggression last Saturday. It has seen the IRGC hit sensitive and strategic targets throughout the occupied territories as well as the United States' regional interests with hundreds of ballistic missiles and attack drones.
Among others, prominent targets have featured hostile objects in the city of Tel Aviv, the holy occupied city of al-Quds, and the occupied city of Be'er Sheva, which serves as the Israeli regime's technology hub, as well as the US's Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier and an American destroyer in the Indian Ocean.

The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps’ (IRGC) Intelligence Unit says Iran will consider the Israeli regime’s shelters “legitimate targets” if residential areas in the country come under attack.
In a post published on social media platform X on Tuesday, the IRGC said that any strikes on residential areas in Iran would give Iran’s armed forces the right to attack Israeli shelters in the occupied lands.
The IRGC stated that it has intelligence on the blueprints and the exact locations of these shelters.
Iran began its Operation True Promise 4 after the US and Israel launched their joint military aggression against the Islamic Republic in late February by assassinating Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Sayyed Ali Khamenei, and several senior Iranian officials.
In its latest wave of attacks, the IRGC said it rained down missiles on the Israeli regime’s “secure” intelligence facilities in Tel Aviv.

In a fresh wave of retaliatory strikes, the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) targeted the Israeli regime’s “secure” intelligence facilities in Tel Aviv.
The IRGC’s Public Relations Department said in a statement on Tuesday that it had carried out the 79th wave of its ongoing retaliatory Operation True Promise 4 against the Israeli and American targets.
Deploying powerful Kheybar Shekan, Emad, and Sejjil missiles alongside IRGC Aerospace Force kamikaze drones, the operation successfully breached the regime's multi-layered air defense systems, the statement said.
The missiles, it stated, targeted Israel’s intelligence facilities in northern and central Tel Aviv, as well as military commercial and support centers in Ramat Gan and the Negev.
The missiles also hit Israel’s southern military logistics and command headquarters in Beersheba.
The missile strikes triggered widespread panic across Israel and forced the suspension of a Knesset (parliament) session on Tuesday.
