Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has reportedly deployed a newly developed missile system for the first time in a high-stakes strike against Israel, marking a significant shift in the regional military landscape. The advanced missile was said to have successfully breached layers of sophisticated air defense systems backed by the United States.
According to Brigadier General Reza Talaee Nik, spokesperson for Iran’s Defense Ministry, the missile struck a major Israeli security and intelligence hub. Speaking on state television, he claimed the precision-guided weapon highlighted Iran’s “intelligence superiority” and exposed the vulnerabilities of the Israeli defense network.
General Talaee Nik emphasized that the weapon was entirely indigenously produced and undetected by enemy systems. “This missile’s effectiveness signals the declining resilience of the Zionist enemy,” he stated, adding that Iran’s defensive posture has now evolved into a full-scale offensive strategy.
In a parallel development, a major cyberattack disrupted operations at Iran’s central Bank Sepah, hinting at intensifying hybrid warfare in the backdrop of mounting Iran-Israel tensions. Tehran has warned of further “surprises,” asserting that Israel would not be able to endure a prolonged strategic confrontation.
