The Beginning of Operation True Promise 3, Codenamed "Ya Ali ibn Abi Talib (PBUH)"

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful, "And the wrongdoers know that they will be overturned."

Following the aggression and hostile operations carried out by the brutal, child-killing zionist terrorist regime against Islamic regions of Iran this morning, and the martyrdom of a group of senior commanders of the Armed Forces, prominent scholars, and innocent citizens, especially oppressed children, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), as the defensive and offensive arm of the Iranian nation, relying on divine power, the wise guidance of the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces (Supreme Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces), and the unified demand and support of the noble Iranian nation, launched its crushing and precise response against dozens of targets, military centers, and air bases of the usurping zionist regime in the occupied territories. Operation True Promise 3, codenamed "Ya Ali ibn Abi Talib (PBUH)," was launched on the blessed night of Eid al-Ghadir.

The details of this operation will be communicated to the noble Iranian nation in a later announcement.

Imam Khamenei: The Zionist regime will not escape safely from the heinous crime they’ve committed.

Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC):
—
In the third phase of Operation True Promise, we targeted the military centers and airbases that were the source of the criminal attack on our country, as well as the military-industrial facilities used by the zionist regime’s army to produce missiles and other weaponry.

Field reports, satellite imagery, and intercepted intelligence confirm that dozens of ballistic missiles successfully struck strategic targets. Despite the enemy’s claims of interception, it failed to repel the waves of missile attacks launched by our forces.

Spokesman for the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran, Behrouz Kamalvandi:
—
Limited damage was inflicted on the Fordow nuclear reactor site, and we moved important equipment out of Fordow before the attack. There is no concern about nuclear contamination at the plant.

The Iranian Army says that the fate of the zionist pilot of the F-35 that was just shot down is unknown.

The high-altitude stealth warplane was shot down with Iranian air defenses with a single shot. Until yesterday, no F-35 has ever been shot down in history; Iran downed three.

Iranian special forces are deployed in the mountains and fields of Iran to pursue the zionist pilots.

Brigadier General Ismail Kawthari, member of the National Security Committee in the Iranian Parliament:
—
Iran is currently studying closing the Strait of Hormuz, and we will make the best decision with all determination and firmness.

Our hands are very open to punish the enemy, and the military response was just a part of the overall response.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi:
—
There is no justification for the continuation of indirect negotiations between Iran and the United States in light of "israel’s" ongoing barbaric behavior.

Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps:
—
A new wave of the massive combined missile and drone offensive operation "True Promise 3," codenamed "Ya Ali ibn Abi Talib," was launched on the evening of Eid al-Ghadir by the IRGC Aerospace Force in response to renewed aggressions by the zionist entity.

Additional information will be announced later.

Statement No. 2 of the General Staff of the Armed Forces following the attack on parts of the country

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

“Among the believers are men who have been true to their covenant with Allah. Some of them have fulfilled their vow [to the death], and some are [still] waiting, but they have never changed [their commitment] in the least.”

O martyr-raising and revolutionary nation of Islamic Iran;
The martyrdom of the commanders of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, Major General Mohammad Bagheri (Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran), Major General Gholam Ali Rashid (Commander of the Central Headquarters of the Seal of the Prophets (PBUH)), Major General Hossein Salami (Commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps), and a group of dear scientists and compatriots, especially innocent women and children, in the aggressive attack of the zionist regime once again proved to the world the terrorist nature of this evil regime.

Although the loss of these relics and the lives of those who sacrificed eight years of sacred defense is difficult and heartbreaking, their comrades and colleagues will never let the flag of honor and glory that these dear ones have raised fall to the ground, and their bright path will continue with strength and determination.

The martyrs of this terrorist act had worn the robe of jihad and martyrdom for years in the path of protecting the revolution and ensuring the security of the noble Iranian nation, and now they are enjoying the company of Allah and their martyred comrades. However, avenging the unjustly-shed blood of the martyrs of this aggression is a mission that the armed forces have set on their agenda, and they will not stop until it is realized.

The General Staff of the Armed Forces, while congratulating and condoling the martyrdom of these dear ones, assures His Holiness Baqiyatullah al-Azam (a.s.), the Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces (may Allah protect him), the heroic nation of Iran, and the great family of the Armed Forces, that now that the terrorist regime occupying Al-Quds has crossed all red lines, with reliance on God Almighty and the support of the zealous nation of the Islamic Republic of Iran, there are no limits left to respond to this crime, and the hand of divine vengeance will grip the brutal terrorist regime and its supporters, Allah willing.

Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution in Iran, Sayyed Ali Khamenei:
—
O great nation of Iran!

At dawn today, the zionist regime opened its dirty and bloody hand in a crime in our beloved country and revealed its evil nature more than ever by hitting residential centers. The regime must expect a severe punishment.

The powerful hand of the armed forces of the Islamic Republic will not abandon it, Allah willing.

In the enemy attacks, several commanders and scientists were martyred. Their successors and colleagues will immediately resume their duties, Allah willing.

With this crime, the zionist regime prepared for itself a bitter and painful fate and it will definitely receive it.

Statement No. 1 of the General Staff of the Armed Forces following the attack on parts of the country

The aggressive and reckless act of the zionist regime at dawn on Friday, 23 Khordad (13 June), in striking parts of the country, including both civilian and military areas, has led to the martyrdom and injury of a number of our dear compatriots, among them women, children, and several commanders of the Armed Forces.

The Communications Center of the General Staff of the Armed Forces, while condemning this blatant violation by the malign zionist enemy, an action that contravenes all international norms, assures the noble, martyr-nurturing, and courageous people of Islamic Iran, in accordance with the order of the Commander-in-Chief, that the response of your soldiers in the Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran to the planners, perpetrators, and supporters of this cowardly act will be crushing and cause them deep regret.

Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs:
—
The attacks of the zionist regime on Iran are a violation of Article 4, Paragraph 2, of the United Nations Charter and a clear aggression against the Islamic Republic of Iran. Responding to this aggression is Iran's legal and legitimate right in accordance with Article 51 of the United Nations Charter, and the armed forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran will not hesitate to defend the Iranian nation with all their might and in a manner they determine.

The dangerous and far-reaching effects and consequences of the zionist regime's aggression against our beloved homeland of Iran will be the responsibility of this regime and its supporters.

The zionist regime's aggressive actions against Iran cannot have been carried out without the coordination and permission of the United States. Accordingly, the US government, as the main supporter of this regime, will also be responsible for the dangerous effects and consequences of the zionist regime's maneuver.

Islamic Republic of Iran Army:
—
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

Free people of Iran—brothers and sisters!

The blood-thirsty, tyrannical zionist regime has begun an aerial violation of the Islamic Republic of Iran, striking several locations inside our country.

Until now we have avoided opening the path of war, but the Army, alongside the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, will not tolerate this foul child-killing aggression or the shedding of our compatriots’ pure blood. A bitter lesson awaits Netanyahu.

Our dear people must maintain calm and composure. Reject any rumors that may be spread by agents of this regime, keep away from military garrisons, and await the moment of the collective duty that will be assigned by the exalted Leader. At this time, the combat forces of the Army and the IRGC are engaged in battle in the skies.

Further results will be communicated to the Iranian nation in due course.

Iranian Ministry of Defense:
—
The illegitimate, criminal zionist regime once again revealed its vile, anti-human nature in the early hours of today, carrying out a cowardly attack on a residential township within the sacred territory of the Islamic Republic of Iran and committing an open act of brutality.

In this savage assault, flagrantly violating all international laws, several innocent civilians, including women and children, along with a number of Armed Forces commanders and scientists of this land, were martyred, further exposing the murderous essence of this child-killing regime.

While offering condolences to the great Iranian nation and to the esteemed families of the martyrs, the Ministry of Defense declares that, in obedience to the orders of the Commander-in-Chief and with the backing of the people, the powerful hand of the Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran stands ready to deliver a severe and exemplary punishment. The zionist regime will undoubtedly pay the full price for this crime.

The government of the Islamic Republic of Iran following the recent zionist aggression:
—
The zionist regime’s nighttime aggression against our homeland; Iran, which resulted in the martyrdom of our beloved citizens, commanders, and scientists, proved that this illegitimate regime does not adhere to any international rules and laws, and like a drunken bell, it officially and brazenly engages in terror.

Starting a war with Iran is playing with the lion’s tail. Although we Iranians have never initiated any war in the past two hundred years, we have not hesitated in defending our homeland and we will not.

“Israel”’s aggression against the sacred skies of Iran and the cowardly assassination of Iranian commanders proved that this regime is inherently terrorist.

Now we, all of us in Iran, the nation, the government, and the government, can shout louder than ever that the zionists are terrorists and aggressors, and consider revenge and defense as our legitimate right, and more unified and united than ever, without any political differences, give a strong response to this child-killing and terrorist regime.

Defending this water, soil, sky, children, generals, scientists, and all citizens is the responsibility and duty of the government of the Islamic Republic of Iran and its armed forces, and we will not back down from it one bit.

One should not speak to such a predatory regime except in the language of power. The world now understands better Iran's insistence on the right to enrichment, nuclear technology, and missile power.

We will avenge each and every one of our martyrs and turn the violation of Iran's national sovereignty into an unforgivable sin of the usurper Israel.

We call on the United Nations Security Council to defend its dignity and existence against the collapse of the international system, but we will not wait for these institutions. Revenge is near; closer than the jugular vein to the terrorist zionists.

This is the voice of a nation and a government that calls upon the world to bear witness that we did not start the war, but the end of this story will be written by Iran.

The Public Relations Office of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) on the Martyrdom of Major General Hossein Salami and a Number of His IRGC Companions:
—
In the Name of God, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful

“Among the believers are men who have been true to their covenant with Allah. Some of them have fulfilled their vow [to the death], and some are [still] waiting, but they have never changed [their commitment] in the least.”

With hearts full of pain and sorrow, we extend our deepest condolences and highest congratulations to the presence of the Awaited Imam Mahdi (may God hasten his reappearance), to the exalted Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Imam Khamenei (may his shadow endure), to the noble families of the martyrs, to their comrades in the IRGC and Basij, and to all the honorable and revolutionary people of Iran, on the martyrdom of the courageous and fighter commander, Major General Hossein Salami—the Commander-in-Chief of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps—along with a number of his companions, in the criminal and terrorist attack carried out by the zionist occupying entity at dawn on Friday, 23 Khordad 1404 (solar Hijri calendar), targeting the IRGC command headquarters while they were engaged in a sensitive mission to defend the security of the nation and its people.

There is no doubt that Martyr Salami was one of the most prominent leaders of the Islamic Revolution and a figure of the arenas of scientific, cultural, security, and military jihad. He was always present on the frontlines—with a humble spirit, strategic wisdom, and unwavering commitment to the guardianship of the jurist (Wilayat al-Faqih).

Through his well-rounded character, strategic mindset, exceptional eloquence, and deep loyalty, Martyr Salami represented a distinguished model among the revolution’s leaders. His achievements in expanding the strategic depth of the Axis of Resistance, confronting complex threats, enhancing deterrent capabilities, and articulating the message of the Revolution will remain etched in the nation’s collective memory.

His martyrdom is yet another testament to the oppression faced by the Islamic Republic, and to the inability of its hateful enemies—those official terrorists—to overcome the spiritual power and steadfast will of the warriors of truth.

Without doubt, his noble and honorable path will continue—with even greater determination—through the children of the Revolution in the IRGC, the Basij, the Armed Forces, and the people at large. The criminal zionist entity will pay a heavy price for this crime, which was committed with the knowledge and intent of the White House rulers and the terrorist American regime.

This righteous path, filled with faith and insight, which the fighter martyr devoted himself to, will be carried forward with unyielding resolve by his comrades. The crimes of Iran’s enemies will not go unanswered, and they will face a stern retaliation that they will come to regret.

Resistance Factions Condemn the “israeli” Aggression Against Iran and Stand in Solidarity with Its Brotherly Nation.

Hamas strongly condemns "israel's" large-scale attack on Iran, calling it a dangerous escalation aimed at dragging the region into open conflict for the sake of zionist ambitions. The group expresses full solidarity with Iran and offers condolences for the martyrdom of senior figures, including IRGC Commander Hossein Salami, Chief of Staff Mohammad Bagheri, and nuclear scientists. Hamas affirms that Iran is being targeted for its support of Palestine and its independent stance, and it calls for unified resistance across the Muslim world. Hamas further emphasized that "israel" is the main enemy of the region and that confronting it is a collective, existential battle.

The Islamic Jihad Movement in Palestine strongly condemns the "israeli" aggression on Iran, describing it as a dangerous escalation aimed at triggering open regional conflict. The PIJ expresses full solidarity with Iran, praises its resilience, and exalts the martyrdom of key Iranian figures, including IRGC commander Hossein Salami.

The Palestinian Mujahideen Movement condemns the "israeli" attack on Iran, calling it cowardly, brutal, and backed by the United States. It expresses solidarity with Iran and exalts the martyrdom of high-ranking officials, including IRGC Commander Hossein Salami and Chief of Staff Mohammad Bagheri. The Movement frames the attack as part of a broader war against the Muslim nation as "israel" and the U.S. are threatening regional and global peace.

The Ansarallah Political Bureau strongly condemns "israel's" attack on Iran and asserts Iran’s full right to respond by all possible means. Ansarallah described the entity as a nuclear-armed, aggressive force that poses a threat to the entire region, as it is responsible for tens of thousands of deaths in Palestine, Lebanon, and across the Arab world. Ansarallah defended and reiterated its support of Iran’s nuclear program and praised Iran for being the only Islamic state that has steadfastly supported the Palestinian cause. Ansarallah exalted the martyrs and offered heartfelt condolences to Iran’s leadership, government, and people for the loss of their leaders and scholars—martyrs who have sacrificed for their principles. Lastly, they called on the Muslim world to break its silence and unite in facing what it describes as a common threat from "israel".

The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) condemns "israel's" attack on Iran, and called it a terrorist act targeting civilian and military infrastructure. It blames the U.S. for enabling the aggression and warns that attempts to pressure Iran into abandoning its principles, rights, and sovereignty will fail. The PFLP expresses confidence in Iran’s ability to overcome the loss of its leaders and reaffirms full solidarity with the Iranian people and leadership. The Front reaffirmed its full solidarity with the Iranian people and leadership, stating that Iran—through its revolutionary legacy, unity, bold leadership, and long-standing resistance to zionism and colonialism—will respond and deter the aggressors. Lastly, it called on the international community to condemn the attack and urges global protests against the occupation and its backers.

Fatah Al-Intifada condemns "israel's" attack on Iran and described it as a threat to regional security and a failed attempt to weaken resistance. It links the aggression to international silence, U.S. support and Western complicity. They offered condolences to Iran, and pledges full solidarity and continued struggle until the zionist entity is eliminated.

Hezbollah:
—
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

Hezbollah strongly condemns the brazen "israeli" aggression that targeted the Islamic Republic of Iran. This attack constitutes a dangerous escalation in the course of zionist recklessness, carried out under full American support and sponsorship. It affirms that this enemy adheres to no logic or laws and knows only the language of killing, fire, and destruction. It is increasingly engaging in reckless acts and adventures that threaten to set the entire region ablaze in service of its aggressive ambitions and to save itself from internal crises.

All the efforts made during the past period to preserve stability and security in the region have been destroyed and aborted by the enemy’s government, placing regional and international security at serious risk with potentially disastrous consequences. The peoples and states of the region must realize that if this aggression is not met with rejection, condemnation, and solidarity with Iran and its people, this criminal entity will only grow more aggressive and tyrannical, furthering the American-"israeli" projects of domination in the region, harming the interests of its peoples, and plundering their wealth.

The Islamic Republic has consistently exercised restraint and avoided being dragged into "israeli" provocations and acts of aggression. It has responded positively to all international initiatives aimed at defusing the crisis, while firmly upholding its natural right to peaceful nuclear energy as a means for the advancement, development, and welfare of its people.

The enemy has crossed every red line, thinking it can change the equations. But it will soon realize that the great Iranian people will only grow more determined to uphold their legitimate natural rights and will defend their freedom, dignity, and independence with strength.

Hezbollah affirms that this aggression could not have occurred without direct American approval, coordination, and cover—though Washington now seeks to disavow responsibility in order to avoid its consequences. Hezbollah expresses its full solidarity with the Islamic Republic of Iran—its leadership and people—in the face of this grave assault. It affirms that such acts of aggression will not weaken Iran but will only make it stronger, more resilient in confronting dangers, and more determined to defend its sovereignty and security.

Hezbollah extends its deepest condolences to His Eminence Imam Sayyed Ali Khamenei (may his shadow endure), to the President of the Republic, the Iranian government, the leadership of the Revolutionary Guard, and to the dear Iranian people for the loss of the noble martyrs who ascended in this treacherous attack. We ask God to envelop them in His vast mercy. Hezbollah affirms that these pure and sacred bloods will, by God’s will, bring nothing but ruin upon this criminal entity.

Martyr Izz El-Din Al-Qassam Brigades spokesman Abu Obeida:
—
We declare our solidarity with the Islamic Republic of Iran in the face of the brutal zionist aggression, which is primarily due to its unwavering support for the Palestinian people and its significant backing of their honorable resistance fighters. We also mourn its senior leaders and martyrs who ascended as a result of this cowardly aggression.

The zionist enemy is utterly deluded if it thinks that these treacherous strikes can undermine the resistance fronts or solidify the foundations of this fragile entity in the region. On the absolute contrary, it continues to commit successive strategic mistakes that will bring it closer to its inevitable demise, God willing.

Highlights from the speech of Ansarallah Commander Sayyed Abdul-Malik Badr El-Din al-Houthi, today, 14 June, 2025:
—
On Eid al-Ghadir, I congratulate our Yemeni people and the whole Ummah, affirming that rejoicing in the Day of Walayah is gratitude for Allah’s blessing, testimony to the perfection of the religion, and renewal of allegiance that shields the Ummah from loyalty to Jews and Christians.

The Qur’anic warning against taking Jews and Christians as patrons covers every form of cooperation, submission, or obedience to them; such allegiance makes one a partner in their crimes, misguidance, and corruption.

Absence of true faith-education lets many unwittingly serve or applaud the enemy. The movement of hypocrisy inside the Ummah pushes it toward befriending the enemies and helps advance their control.

The enemies work to strip the Ummah of its faith roots, re-programme its religion and identity, and impose their slogan of “changing the face of the Middle East”, total subjugation of the region’s peoples, lands, and resources.

Their wrongdoing extends beyond murder to doctrinal, cultural, and political misguidance; corrupting societies is itself a form of oppression. Dark tyrants masquerade under false slogans of light while sapping the Ummah’s morale.

Submission to zionists means deeper humiliation, fear, and degradation, cost in this world and the next; confrontation based on awareness and responsibility preserves rights and homelands.

In Gaza their genocide, now the ugliest pinnacle of oppression, aims to finish the Palestinian cause and remove all obstacles before the zionist plan. Two choices stand before us: submission, which brings humiliation in both worlds, or confrontation that preserves rights and homelands.

Darkness and tyranny march together: whoever allies himself with the Jews becomes an oppressor, and nothing is more oppressive than their crimes in Gaza. Their wrongdoing spans killing, doctrinal distortion, cultural corruption, and political deception.

Faith in Divine Walayah links the Ummah to God’s guidance, directing its political, economic, and social paths and guaranteeing victory in the struggle against enemies. Without that bond the Ummah is rootless and easily uprooted.

The “israeli” strike on the Islamic Republic of Iran is open thuggery against an independent Muslim state that backs Palestine. It targeted commanders, scientists, civilians, and even a nuclear facility, risking radioactive catastrophe.

All Arab and Islamic governments have condemned the attack; they must maintain that stance and resist Western pressure. The West’s sole aim is to contain Iran’s reply; failing that, it will join the enemy to block it.

Iran’s position is strong, internally coherent, militarily and economically sound; the aggression only offers a chance to inflict great defeats on the enemy. Any Iranian victory will first benefit the oppressed Palestinian people and strengthen the region against zionist arrogance.

"Israel", with U.S., British, French, and German backing, seeks a doctrine of impunity, freedom to strike any Arab or Muslim land. Accepting such impunity is the gravest threat; deterrence is essential and God promises aid to those who stand firm.

Yemen fully supports Iran’s right to respond and shares its stance with everything in our power. We extend condolences to Iran’s leadership and people, and blessings to the martyrs.

Yemen remains in open war with the “israeli” enemy and steadfast in support of Gaza; our jihadi duties continue unshaken.

The enemy violated Arab airspace in its attack on Iran, treating those countries as part of its zionist map for future occupation. The Ummah must restore the balance of deterrence, never accept the enemy’s freedom to ravage.

I remind all that more than 2,112,701 marches, rallies, and vigils have filled Yemen in twenty months; our next million-strong march tomorrow will renew loyalty to God, the Qur’an, Al-Aqsa, and the oppressed Palestinian people, affirming that we will persevere without fatigue or hesitation.

"So whoever transgresses against you, transgress against him in the same way that he has transgressed against you." Surah Al-Baqarah [verse 194]

In continuation of the Operation True Promise 3 offensive, in response to today's evils and aggressions of the zionist regime, the regime's fighter jet fuel production facilities and energy supply centers were targeted with a multitude of drones and missiles.

The offensive operations of the Islamic Republic of Iran’s Armed Forces will continue to be more fierce and widespread if the evil and aggression continues.

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’ aerospace defense system, under the command of the integrated network and the country's joint air defense headquarters, has succeeded in intercepting and destroying 3 cruise missiles, 10 drones, and dozens of small aircraft of the “israeli” army in the areas of conflict throughout the country.

Issued by the Yemeni Armed Forces:

Triumphing for the oppressed Palestinian and Iranian peoples, and in response to the crime of starvation and thirst perpetrated by the Zionist enemy against our people in the Gaza Strip.

The missile force of the Yemeni Armed Forces carried out a military operation targeting sensitive Israeli enemy targets in the occupied area of Yaffa using a number of Palestine 2 hypersonic ballistic missiles at various times over the past 24 hours.

This operation was coordinated with the operations carried out by the Iranian army against the criminal Israeli enemy.

The operations successfully achieved their objectives, thanks be to Allah.

The Yemeni Armed Forces salute the Islamic Republic of Iran, its people, army, and leadership, as they bravely, willfully, resolutely, and faithfully confront the brutal Zionist aggression.
Relying on Allah, they deliver blow after blow to its facilities, headquarters, and bases.

The Yemeni Armed Forces, as they proudly follow these developments, affirm that they are committed to the covenant and promise with the people of Gaza and its loyal, free mujahideen, until the aggression against them stops and the siege is lifted.

To the rest of the Arab and Islamic countries and peoples, we say: Jihad is one of the gates of Paradise, opened by Allah for His distinctive servants.
Take the initiative to stop the Israeli crimes against your people in Gaza, for what befalls them today will befall you tomorrow.

Iranian Foreign Minister:
—
There is absolutely no justification for the zionist aggression against Iran.

Our response was in accordance with self-defense and international law.

On the first night, we targeted zionist military sites.

We targeted economic facilities in "israel".

During the second round yesterday, we targeted the Haifa oil refinery.

We call on the International Atomic Energy Agency to condemn the targeting of a facility.

The U.S. is complicit in "israel's" attacks on Iran, and we have the evidence.

We do not wish to drag the war into regional countries—unless we are forced to.

The U.S. must take responsibility for its actions.

Palestinian Resistance Factions:
—
We strongly condemn the heinous zionist aggression against the Islamic Republic of Iran. This attack reflects the criminal nature of this entity. We affirm that Iran is paying the price for its steadfast and principled stance alongside our people, our resistance, and our Palestinian cause.

The Palestinian resistance factions mourn the martyrdom of a group of leaders of the Islamic Republic, foremost among them the two fighting commanders Hossein Salami and Mohammad Bagheri, along with military leaders, scientists, and civilians who were martyred in the zionist aggression against Iran. We confirm that their pure blood will remain a curse on the foreheads of the zionists and Americans and a lasting disgrace to all traitors and cowards.

The overwhelming Iranian response to the zionist aggression proves that brave, strong Iran and its sincere leadership possess the strength and ability to make the zionist entity scream and regret its crimes.

The scenes of Iranian missiles striking zionist strongholds and hideouts fill us with pride, dignity, and honor, and shatter zionist arrogance and dominance. It sends a message to the zionist entity that its delusions of superiority and dominance are gone forever.

The continued, precise Iranian missile responses and the resilience of Iran’s home front confirm that if the Ummah wills it, it can act—and that force and resistance are capable of restraining the criminal Netanyahu and his rogue gang. Their continued aggression will lead them to the abyss faster than they imagine.

The Islamic Republic of Iran, through its leadership and fighting armed forces, is avenging every drop of blood spilled since October 7 in Gaza, Lebanon, Yemen, and Iran. It sends a message to all who bet on the zionist entity: blood is not forgotten, and accountability is coming no matter how long it takes. The era of the zionists' illusion of superiority and that of their criminal allies is over.

The missile strikes and overwhelming counterattacks have brought joy and delight to Gaza, its people, and its children. They are vengeance and revenge for the zionist criminals who kill babies, women, and the elderly, starve our people, and destroy all aspects of life in Gaza for the past 20 months. Iran’s missiles came to strike the killers’ heads and their vulnerable underbelly, bringing down all illusions of zionist arrogance and tyranny.

We call upon all the peoples of the Ummah and all free people of the world to unite, set aside their differences, and rally behind the Iranian armed forces, who are fighting this battle on behalf of the entire Ummah.

Greetings to the brotherly Muslim Iranian people, its wise leadership, and the brave Iranian armed forces. From Palestine, we say: Peace be upon you, your martyrs, your wounded. Peace upon your missiles, your tireless arms, your unyielding resolve, and your resistance as it writes new chapters of the Ummah’s glory.

Secretary-General of Kataeb Hezbollah, Abu Hussein Al-Hamidawi:
—
The Islamic Republic does not need any military support from anyone to deter the criminal zionist entity. It possesses the men and capabilities sufficient to rub Netanyahu’s nose in the dirt and to rein in the tyranny of this usurping entity.

While Iran confronts the zionist aggression with courage and resilience, we are closely monitoring the movements of the American enemy forces in the region.

Should America intervene in the war, we will directly target its interests and bases spread throughout the region without hesitation.

Based on the current situation, it is the duty of the Iraqi government, the brothers in the Coordination Framework, and all sincere officials to shoulder their responsibility and take a brave stance to prevent the expansion of the war. This includes shutting down the embassy of the Great Satan and expelling the American occupation forces from the country, as they are the clearest and most dangerous threat to Iraq’s security and the stability of the region.

“Peace! A word from a Merciful Lord.”

Iranian Armed Forces spokesman:
—
We warn "israelis" to stay away from vital areas. Do not allow the criminal regime to use you as human shields.

Zionist settlers must leave the occupied territories, as they will not be habitable soon.

We possess a comprehensive target list within the zionist entity, and we will target vital points.

We targeted military headquarters, decision-making centers, and the residences of zionist leaders and scholars.

A strategic mistake will be met with a crushing and devastating response that will make the enemy regret his actions.

Martyr Izz El-Din Al-Qassam Brigades:
—
“Do not think of those who are killed in the way of Allah as dead. Rather, they are alive with their Lord, receiving provision.”

With full pride and honor, the Al-Qassam Brigades exalt to our Islamic Ummah the martyrs of the Islamic Republic of Iran — senior commanders of the armed forces — who ascended as a result of the ongoing zionist aggression against the Republic. At the forefront:
• Martyr Commander Major General / Mohammad Bagheri
Chief of General Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces

And their brothers among the military leaders and fighters.

We praise the pivotal and historic role played by these senior commanders and their comrades in supporting the Palestinian cause and its resistance over decades. Their steadfast stance, which will be inscribed with letters of light in history, was most recently manifested in the battle of the Islamic nation — Operation Al-Aqsa Flood. Despite knowing that this overt and immense support would come at a high cost paid in blood and sacrifice, they never wavered, and were finally sealed with martyrdom at the hands of the enemies of the Ummah.

The coming days will reveal the extent of these critical contributions that served as a powerful boost in the trajectory of our struggle with the zionist enemy — to the point where we now stand closer than ever to achieving final victory over this monstrous entity.

In the same spirit, we also exalt the martyrs of the dear Iranian people — who have always stood as supporters and a backbone of the resistance. We pray for the recovery of the wounded, and we declare our solidarity with the Republic — both leadership and people.

We further commend the heroic and powerful actions of the Iranian armed forces, which shook the pillars of the occupation entity in response to its aggression. These strikes shattered its delusions and proved that its treacherous attacks cannot break the will of the free. Instead, they have only strengthened their resolve and determination to make the Nazi occupation pay a heavy price — to rein in its aggression and rampant behavior in a region that, for decades, lacked a deterrent — which unfortunately encouraged it to escalate its hostility.

Our afflicted Palestinian people — especially in Gaza — followed these powerful strikes with immense pride. They brought a measure of healing to their hearts after the criminal occupier committed genocide and ethnic cleansing against them, destroyed their homes and land, and grew ever more arrogant in its tyranny.

We ask Allah Almighty to bring His victory upon our Ummah, to utterly destroy the arrogance of the occupation, and to fulfill — through the hands of our Ummah, its resistance, and its free people — the Promise of the Hereafter: the liberation of Al-Aqsa Mosque and the eradication of this cancerous entity that has been implanted in our Ummah’s body for decades — and whose time has come to be uprooted, once and for all.

“And they say: When will that be? Say: Perhaps it is near.”

Indeed, it is a jihad of victory or martyrdom.

Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps:
—
Targeting the intelligence centers of the usurping entity as the third phase of Operation “True Promise 3”

“Indeed, We shall exact retribution from the criminals.”

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps informs the noble Iranian people that the delusional and brutal army of the zionist entity has continued its acts of aggression and crimes against the Islamic Republic of Iran. Once again, it has revealed its vile and terrorist nature by targeting civilians in residential areas and assassinating three of the soldiers of Imam Mahdi (may God hasten his reappearance), who were also heroic intelligence commanders: the martyrs Mohammad Kazemi, Hassan Mohaqeq, and Mohsen Baqeri.

In decisive retaliation—particularly in response to today’s crimes—the IRGC Aerospace Forces have launched a new wave of missile operations, targeting the intelligence centers of the usurping entity as the third phase of Operation “True Promise 3.”

Supporters of this criminal entity must know that precise and high-impact operations against its vital interests will continue until its complete eradication.

“Victory is from none but Allah, the Almighty, the Wise.”

Iranian Foreign Minister:
—
The United States supports the aggression against our country, and European countries' positions are unilateral in favor of "israel."

Washington and Europe's encouragement of “israeli” aggression is a historic mistake and will have major repercussions for the world.

Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps statement on the Eighth Wave of Operation “True Promise 3”:
—
Statement No. 6

We hereby inform the noble nation of Iran that moments ago, a new and more powerful wave of missile attacks by the IRGC Aerospace Force has begun, stronger and more intense than before.

In this operation, the command and control systems of the brutal zionist regime were disrupted using advanced methods and enhanced intelligence and technical capabilities — strengthened by martyrs Bagheri, Salami, Hajizadeh, and other martyrs of the IRGC Aerospace Force. The enemy’s multi-layered defense systems were thrown into disarray, to the extent that their own defense systems targeted each other.

The innovations and capabilities used in this operation — despite full support from the U.S. and Western powers, and the regime’s access to the latest and most advanced defense technologies — led to the successful and maximum impact of the missiles on their intended targets in the occupied territories.

Today, we are witnessing the fulfillment of the honest promises of Martyrs Bagheri, Salami, and Hajizadeh, who repeatedly stated that “True Promise 3” and future operations would be far more forceful, precise, and destructive than previous ones.

This operation also proves that the assessments and calculations of the delusional and aggressive zionist and American enemies regarding Islamic Iran were completely wrong — and now, we must witness the collapse of the zionist occupying regime.

Supporters of this criminal regime should also know that effective, targeted, and increasingly forceful operations against the vital centers of this fake regime will continue until its complete destruction.

Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps Commander-in-Chief, Brigadier General Mohammad Pakpour:
—
Even if “Israel” attacks stop, we will continue our mission until the end.

“Israeli” losses exceed what is announced.

We targeted just one building that housed 70 “israelis,” and we completely destroyed it.

We have destroyed important areas in "israel" and will continue to do so in response to the “israeli” aggression.

IRGC Advisor General Ahmad Vahidi to Tasnim:
—
We have considered all possibilities and prepared ourselves for any scenario in war.

The reduction of missile reserves is a joke; we have not yet sufficiently utilized our missile capabilities strategically. Whenever we deem it appropriate, we will bring our modern equipment into the field, of which new generation missiles are only a part.

We have no concerns about the war being prolonged, and in the coming days, the world will see what innovations Iran will bring to the field.

Day by day, the situation on the battlefield will improve in all dimensions of the war, and we may also utilize our other capacities.

Our options are wide open to cripple the zionist regime, and in the near future, everyone will see what capabilities and power Iran's armed forces possess in various fields.

Yemeni President and Supreme Commander of the Yemeni Armed Forces, Mahdi Al-Mashat:
—
We affirm Yemen’s support for Iran in its right to defend its sovereignty and deter aggressors.

There is no international charter that grants anyone the right to unleash their rabid dog on whoever they want. The UN Charter is the binding contract that governs relations between states, and we will not allow it to be violated.

Violating the UN Charter means turning the world into a jungle where only the strong survive.

Some countries have a duty to preserve international peace and security, not to engage in aggression or interfere in the sovereignty of other nations.

If the bond between the world’s nations unravels because of the slaves of zionism, then the language of force will become the alternative.

In the end, the dust of battle will settle over a new world, and no one today can predict the outcome or what that world will look like.

We call on all peace-loving nations to raise their voices against zionist overreach before its fire reaches every country.

All peace-loving countries must work to stop the blatant zionist aggression against Iran and other countries in the region, based on the UN Charter and the mechanisms it outlines to stop any aggression against member states, in order to achieve peace and security.

The exploitation of the UN Charter by those who are supposed to protect it is pushing us, and many nations, to work toward strengthening it. We will take all necessary measures to achieve peace and security.

Iranian Red Crescent:
—
A direct attack by the zionist regime on Red Crescent relief teams during aid operations; two Red Crescent paramedics possibly martyred and one injured in Tehran.

Head of the Iranian Broadcasting Corporation:
—
The aggression against us reflects the deep impact of national media within the heart of the "israeli" media apparatus.

Today, the determination of our people working in national media has doubled in confronting the enemy’s complex war.

We are determined to confront the "israeli" war, and the will of Iranian journalism will not be broken.

The "israeli" attack has not—and will not—weaken the resolve of those working in national media.

The actions of the "israeli" enemy may be new to us here in Iran, but its infamous history shows that journalists are among this enemy’s targets… What weapon do we have other than the news bulletin?

Head of the Public Relations and Information Center of the Ministry of Health (at dawn today):
—
224 martyrs and 1,277 hospitalized following the zionist regime's aggression

The unfortunate result of this false slogan that "’israel’ has nothing to do with the Iranian nation and its goals are only military!" After 65 hours of the zionist regime's aggression, the number of injured and martyred is 1,481.

1,277 people were hospitalized in university hospitals in the country, and more than 90 percent are civilians!

Of this number, 522 people were discharged and 224 women, men, and children were martyred.

Note: Media shows violent IOF airstrikes in Tehran today.

Tasnim News Agency:
—
Iranian armed forces' air defenses shot down an F-35 fighter jet in the city of Tabriz, northwestern Iran.

Resistance factions condemn the treacherous zionist attack on the IRIB news channel building:

The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps stated that “the zionist regime attacked the headquarters of the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB) and the studio of the Khabar Network, in a desperate attempt to silence the voice of truth and resistance. This reflects its fear of the people's awareness and the spread of the narrative of truth.

This attack was not only against a building, but also against the people's right to knowledge and freedom of the press. It demonstrates the failure of the zionist media to confront the truth conveyed by national media outlets, especially regarding the oppression of Palestine and the crimes of the occupation.

We salute the courage of the media professionals, especially Ms. Emami, who continued live coverage during Operation True Promise 3, emphasizing that the voice of truth cannot be bombed or silenced.

The IRGC considers this attack evidence of the enemy's brutality and anger at the power of the narrative and reiterates its full support for all media professionals and fighters on the resistance media front.

And those who commit injustice will know what a reversal they will face.”

Hezbollah condemned in the strongest terms the heinous zionist crime that targeted the Iranian Broadcasting Corporation building assuring that this brutal aggression is part of a series of systematic terrorism aimed at silencing the free, resistant voice, obliterating the image of truth and justice, and extinguishing the revolution of the faithful, aware Iranian people who support their leadership.

The Palestinian Islamic Jihad condemned the war crimes committed by the criminal Nazi zionist entity against the Iranian people, particularly the targeting of the Iranian state radio and television building, in addition to the targeting of hospitals and civilian infrastructure, and the perpetration of horrific massacres against innocent civilians, especially children, women, and civilians. The Islamic Jihad assured that these crimes are an extension of the war crimes committed by the criminal entity against the peoples of our nation in Lebanon, Syria, and Yemen, and an extension of the war of genocide waged by the occupation army against our Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip and the occupied West Bank.

The Popular Front for the Liberation stated that targeting a civilian media institution is considered a full-fledged war crime under international law and reflects the nature of the occupation as a terrorist state that does not hesitate to bombard free speech, following the qualitative strikes and heavy losses suffered by its strategic depth in the Iranian response. The Front expressed its deepest condolences for the martyrs, commends the courage of the IRIB's correspondents and media personnel, and affirms its full solidarity with the Iranian people and their national media.

The Popular Resistance Committees in Palestine condemned the strongest terms the barbaric zionist aggression and stated that this attack reflects zionism's bankruptcy in the face of the painful missile strikes launched by the Iranian armed forces against the zionist enemy's hideouts and vanishing cities.

Fatah Al-Intifada strongly condemns the occupation’s targeting of the Iranian Broadcasting Corporation. In their statement, they affirmed that the zionist policy of targeting the media will not succeed in concealing the reality of this Nazi-like occupation and its crimes. They reiterated that the voice of the resistance media in the Islamic Republic of Iran and throughout the Axis of Resistance will continue to rise in support of the oppressed and in exposing the crimes of the occupation.

The factions declared full solidarity with the Iranian people and affirmed their right to defend themselves, and their right to respond, by all means, to the zionist crimes.

Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps:
—
We have launched the ninth wave of Operation True Promise 3 with a drone and missile attack that will continue until dawn.

Over the past 72 hours, we have continuously and without interruption targeted targets throughout the occupied territories with 545 attack drones, and these operations will continue.

We will not allow the zionist regime to enjoy peace and stability.

Secretary-General of the Sayyed Al-Shuhada Brigades in the Islamic Resistance in Iraq, Abu Alaa Al-Walae:
—
The United States has shut down Iraqi radars, providing an aerial corridor for zionist aircraft through Iraqi airspace—which it has controlled for over two decades as part of its occupation presence in Iraq—to carry out its aggressions against the Islamic Republic of Iran.

This necessitates the expulsion of the American representation from the Iraqi Joint Operations Command.

In this context, we strongly support the Iraqi government in advancing efforts to equip Iraq's air defense forces with advanced anti-aircraft systems to protect Iraqi airspace from blatant violations, in defense of the country’s sovereignty and security.

Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps:
Statement No. 7
We inform the dear Iranian people that a new wave of missile attacks launched by the IRGC's Aerospace Force was launched moments ago, and it was more powerful and devastating than its predecessors.

The innovations and capabilities employed in this operation, despite the comprehensive support the enemy receives from America and Western powers, and its possession of the latest and most advanced defense technologies, resulted in the missiles hitting their targets with utmost precision and effectiveness within the occupied territories.

The most effective, precise and crushing operations against the vital targets of this artificial entity will continue until it is completely eliminated.

Victory comes only from God, the Almighty, the Wise.

Statement No. 8

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

"So whoever has assaulted you, then assault him in the same way that he has assaulted you…"
(Surah Al-Baqarah, Ayah 194)

With the grace of Almighty God, in the early hours of today, Tuesday 27 Khordad (17 June), the fighters of the IRGC Aerospace Force, in a decisive operation, despite the presence of highly advanced air defense systems, struck the zionist regime’s Military Intelligence Headquarters (known as Aman) and the center for planning assassinations and acts of sabotage (Mossad) in "Tel Aviv". This facility is currently engulfed in flames.

"And victory is only from Allah, the Almighty, the Wise."

BREAKING - Iranian Armed Forces Chief of Staff, Amir Moussawi in a new speech moments ago:
—
The zionist regime, in an act of aggression disguised as military goals, has attacked the people of Iran—women, children and the elderly. Ignoring all recognized international laws, and continuing the killing of some 300 journalists in Gaza and Lebanon, it has now launched a savage assault on the media professionals of the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting to silence the voice of truth.

The great nation of Iran, as history shows, has never bowed to any aggression, and, while standing firm against this savage act, will make the zionist regime pay for its crimes, God willing.

By God’s power, the martyrdom of our dear compatriots, scientists and commanders of the armed forces will only strengthen our resolve to carry out a punishing reprisal.

Thus far, the IRGC Aerospace Force and the Air-Defense Headquarters, at the front line with support from the Army, the IRGC, the Law-Enforcement Command and the Ministry of Defense, have—by God’s grace—inflicted heavy blows on the enemy by striking sensitive and vital targets.

However, the operations conducted so far have only been a warning for deterrence; the punitive operation will be carried out shortly.

We therefore strongly warn the residents of the occupied territories, especially "Tel Aviv" and Haifa, to leave these areas to save their lives and not sacrifice themselves to Netanyahu’s animalistic desires. Let the free peoples of the world rest assured: the great nation of Iran, led by its armed forces, will avenge the blood of the martyrs—God willing, by His power.

Ansarallah Political Council member Mohammed al-Bukhaiti to Al-Jazeera Mubasher:
—
The zionist entity crossed all red lines by targeting Iranian nuclear facilities.

We assure everyone that in the event of any aggression against an Arab or Islamic country, there will be an inevitable Yemeni response.

We will intervene to support Iran against zionist attacks, just as we supported our brothers in Gaza.

Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps:
Statement No. 9
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

In response to the brazen aggression of the zionist regime against the sacred soil of Islamic Iran, the Aerospace Force of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, in the tenth wave of Operation True Promise 3, planned and executed a precision strike targeting the airbases that were the origin points of the attack.

These strikes will continue in a sustained, complex, multilayered, and gradual manner.

Resistance News Network: In the background of escalating rhetoric, American military movements escalate in tandem in the region, as the USS Nimitz aircraft carrier heads to the Arabian Sea. Refueling planes have migrated to Europe for rapid deployment.

Patriot and THAAD batteries were redeployed to Gulf countries. US and allied ships have also departed from their stations in Bahrain, while B-52 bombers remain stationed at Diego Garcia.

Hamas:
—
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

American threats of military intervention against Iran are pushing the region to the brink of explosion.

We in the Islamic Resistance Movement, Hamas, strongly condemn the American threats and categorically reject the continued zionist aggression against the Islamic Republic of Iran, which constitutes a blatant violation of international law and a direct threat to regional and global peace and security.

The zionist statements claiming that “there are no safe cities from ‘israel’ in the Middle East” reflect an arrogant colonial mindset and reveal aggressive intentions that endanger the stability of the region and its peoples.

We warn of the serious consequences of direct American involvement in any military aggression against Iran, and we hold Washington and the zionist entity fully responsible for the repercussions of this escalation against Iran and the region.

We affirm our solidarity with Iran and its people, and our support for its legitimate right to defend itself and its national sovereignty.

We call on Arab and Islamic countries to take a unified and responsible stance in confronting zionist recklessness, rejecting aggression against Iran, and preventing its continuation in order to protect the security of the region and the interests of its peoples.

Statement No. 10
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
“So when you encounter those who disbelieve, strike at their necks.”

We congratulate the devoted commanders and fighters of the IRGC Aerospace Force on the eleventh wave of the pride-inspiring “True Promise 3” operation, conducted with first-generation Fattah missiles—a beginning of the end for the mythical air defense of the zionist army, plunging the zionist evildoers into confusion and self-destruction.

Tonight, the powerful, highly maneuverable Fattah missiles, piercing the missile-defense shield, shook the refuge of the zionist cowards time and again and sent Iran’s message of might to "Tel Aviv’s" warmongering ally, lost in hollow dreams and delusions.

This evening’s missile strike proved that we now hold full dominion over the skies of the occupied lands, and their inhabitants stand utterly defenseless against Iranian missile attacks.

Resistance News Network: Thousands of zionist settlers report receiving text messages which read “You have dug your own grave with your own hands.”

Resistance News Network: FATTAH-1 - "The Conqueror"

Tonight, the IRGC announced the use of the first-generation Fattah missile for the first time, using it to strike "Tel Aviv."

In the attached video, the maneuverable hypersonic missiles can be seen cutting through 12 IOF interceptors without issue before striking its intended target.

The rocket is capable of maneuvering both inside and outside the atmosphere. With a range of 1400 km and a speed of Mach 13-15, it takes just 5 minutes to reach "Tel Aviv."

The hyper-advanced two-stage missile can change its course multiple times on the way to the target, all while it blocks enemy radar waves.

"Tonight, the powerful, highly maneuverable Fattah missiles, piercing the missile-defense shield, shook the refuge of the zionist cowards time and again and sent Iran’s message of might to 'Tel Aviv’s' warmongering ally, lost in hollow dreams and delusions."

Unveiled for the first time in June 2023 (followed by Fattah-2 in November), there is no anti-missile system in the world that has stopped it.

Leader of the Iranian Islamic Revolution, Imam Sayyed Ali Khamenei in a televised speech:
—
The zionist entity has committed a grave mistake and will be punished for its actions.

Iran will not forgive the zionist entity for violating its airspace and will not forget the blood of its martyrs.

Our armed forces are ready to defend the homeland and are supported by officials and all the people.

The Americans should know that the Iranian people will not submit, and that any military intervention will inevitably be accompanied by an irreparable blow.

Sayyed Ali Khamenei, in his second televised speech (1/2):
—
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

I salute the great Iranian people.

The first topic I wish to address is to commend the conduct of our dear people in the recent issue the country faced at the hands of its enemies. The Iranian people proved to be steadfast, courageous, and aware of the moment. The movement the people presented to the world on the day of Eid al-Ghadir was a great movement: the people's gatherings and their marches in recent days, their presence in Friday prayers and the subsequent marches, are all signs of the maturity of the Iranian people, the firmness of their rationality and spirituality, alongside the courage and good timing of our dear people. I thank Allah for granting this faithful nation such spiritual and Allah capabilities and potential, praise be to God. Here, I find it necessary to point to the beautiful and expressive act of that female television presenter in the face of the enemy's arrogance: her saying "Allahu Akbar" and showing the strength of the people to the whole world; this was a very historic and valuable incident.

The second topic is that this incident, the foolish and malicious attack by the zionist entity on our country, occurred while government officials were engaged in indirect negotiations, through an intermediary, with the American side. There was no indication from Iran's side of any military step or a sharp, harsh move. Of course, it was expected from the beginning that America would be a partner in this malicious act of the zionist entity, but with these recent statements they are making, this expectation is reinforced day by day. The Iranian people are firmly resisting the imposed war, just as they have resisted so far, and they are firmly resisting the peace they want to impose. The Iranian people do not submit to anyone's dictates in their confrontation. I expect that those of thought, pen, and expression, especially those who have contact with global public opinion, will clarify these meanings and concepts and explain them to the public. They must not allow the enemy to distort the facts through its deceptive propaganda. The zionist enemy committed a grave mistake and a major crime, and it must be punished, and it is receiving its punishment; it is receiving its retribution now. It is being punished now. The punishment that the Iranian people and our armed forces have inflicted, are inflicting, and have planned for the future on this malicious enemy is a harsh punishment that has weakened it. Even the intervention of its American friends in the arena and their statements are evidence of its weakness and impotence.

Sayyed Ali Khamenei, in his second televised speech (2/2):
—
As for the final topic, the American President has uttered threats; he threatens us, and at the same time, in a ridiculous and unacceptable manner, he explicitly asks the Iranian people to "submit to me." When one sees such things, one is truly astonished. Firstly, a threat is directed at someone who fears threats, whereas the Iranian people have proven that they do not tremble before the threats of threateners. "So do not weaken and do not grieve, and you will be superior if you are [true] believers."

Threats do not affect the behavior of the Iranian people nor their thinking. Secondly, to tell the Iranian people to come and surrender is not the word of a rational person. Wise people who know Iran, know the Iranian people, and know the history of Iran would never say such a thing. Surrender for what? The Iranian people are defiant against surrender. We have not aggressed against anyone, and we will not accept aggression from anyone under any circumstances, and we will not surrender to anyone's aggression. This is the logic of the Iranian people; this is the spirit of the Iranian people. Of course, the Americans who are aware of the politics of this region know that America's entry into this issue will be one hundred percent to their detriment. The losses they will incur in this regard will be far greater than what Iran might incur. America's loss, if it enters this field—if it enters militarily—will be an irrecoverable loss, without a doubt. I ask our dear people to always keep this noble verse in mind. Life, praise be to Allah, is proceeding normally. Do not let the enemy feel that you fear them, or that you feel weak. If the enemy feels that you fear them, they will never leave you alone. Continue with the same conduct you have followed until today; continue this performance with strength. And those who are in charge of services, those who deal with the people, and those who are in charge of media and clarification, let them perform their duties with strength and continue in them, and let them trust in Allah Almighty: "And victory is not but from Allah, the Exalted in Might, the Wise." Allah Almighty will certainly and surely grant victory to the Iranian people and the rightful, God willing.

And peace be upon you and Allah's mercy.

Iran's mission to the United Nations:

Iran shall respond to any threat with a counter-threat, and to any action with reciprocal measures.

Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps:
Statement No. 11

To the (zionist) settler of the occupied lands in Al-Quds!

The armed forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran, relying on the brave Iranian people, have dismantled the air defense systems of the zionist army in several past operations, and today, the skies of the occupied territories have opened their arms to Iranian missiles and drones.

The missile strikes will be precise and continuous. As you saw yesterday, Mossad and “Aman” (military intelligence) headquarters, as well as air force bases of the zionist army, were targeted across various parts of the occupied territories.

The Commander of the IRGC had warned: "The gates of hell will be opened upon you."

The missiles of the Aerospace Force will not allow you a single moment outside your underground shelters and it has now been days since you’ve seen sunlight.

Be certain: the sirens will not fall silent for even a moment. You must choose between a slow death in a hellish life within the shelters, or a swift escape from the lands your forefathers stole; perhaps you’ll find life beyond the hell that is coming.

For the first time, Iran used heavy Sejjil missiles with a range of 2,000 kilometers in its attack on the "israeli" entity.

Iran's Cybersecurity Command announced the foiling of a zionist cyberattack, which has been targeting the Iranian banking system since yesterday. One bank has been restored, while the second bank is currently being restored.

Meanwhile, the IRIB warned of interference and propaganda through Iranian airwaves by the zionist enemy. Suspicious text messages with links have also been sent to thousands of Iranians.

Iran also confirmed that the IOF bombed the Faraja (police) headquarters in Tehran, resulting in injuries.

This comes as Iranian security forces have apprehended dozens of Mossad agents. Today, 6 more Mossad spies were arrested. Earlier today, a neurologist and his son were arrested in Khorramabad, found with over 200 drones in their village. The villa guard was the point of contact between the duo and the Mossad.

At this moment, the IOF is carrying out new strikes against Tehran, and air defenses have been activated.

Resistance News Network: The Iranian Army announces that the sixth phase of the Army's drone attack was launched, using dozens of various types of drones equipped with anti-fortification warheads against the zionist entity. The drones inflicted heavy blows on the the intended targets, according to the Army.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi:
—
Iran has so far only responded to the occupying entity, not to those who aid and support it.

We will make the aggressor regret his grave mistake and pay the price.

Iran will continue to exercise its right to self-defense with pride and courage.

Iranian Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Kazem Gharibabadi:
—
If America wants to actively intervene in favor of the zionist regime, Iran will have to use its tools to both teach the aggressors a lesson and defend its national security and interests.

Our advice to America is that if it does not want to stop the aggressor, at least it should at least remain a mere observer.

We have never welcomed any war, nor have we sought to expand it. Naturally, our military decision-makers have all the necessary options on the table.

Hezbollah:
—
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

It appears that some influential figures in their countries are unaware of the great and vast standing of the great Guardian and Leader, Imam Khamenei (may his shadow endure) in Iran, the Islamic nation, the world, and among the free Islamic peoples.

Death threats are foolish and reckless, with dire consequences. Despite their absurdity and the low status of those threatening them, the mere utterance of such threats is an insult to hundreds of millions of believers, loved ones, and those connected to Islam and the path of authenticity, resistance, and dignity. Such an act is condemned and denounced in the strongest terms.

Today, we are more determined and committed to the approach of the great Guardian and Leader, Imam Khamenei (may his shadow endure), and more united around his great positions and his confrontation alongside the heroic and dear Iranian people in confronting the israeli-American aggression against the Islamic Republic of Iran. America will discover that it has fallen into a deep abyss due to its tyrannical support for the brutal “israeli” aggression against Gaza, the resistance in the region, and the Islamic Republic of Iran.

The millions of free people rallied around the leadership of Supreme Leader Khamenei cannot be defeated, even if the world's infidels, criminals, and those who violate the human right to a dignified life were to unite. Time will prove that the battle of falsehood is losing, and that the symbols of faith and resistance are victorious.

Statement No.12

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
There is no power or strength except with Allah, the Almighty.

The fourteenth wave of Operation “True Promise 3” has begun with a simultaneous attack using suicide drones and strategic missiles. In this operation, the command and intelligence center of the regime’s army—located near a hospital—was struck with high precision and absolute accuracy.

The intelligence capabilities and target-identification capacity of the armed forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran are now in full view of the world.
All areas of occupied Palestine have turned into desperate, terrifying military barracks.
All military installations have been evacuated, and the regime’s army has deployed its ineffective missile and defense systems in urban centers, covering public spaces.

We had previously warned that the entire sky over the occupied territories is now undefended, and that no place would be safe.
We now warn that the dead corpse of the zionist regime will not be able to withstand the economic blows.

"Indeed, We shall exact retribution from the criminals."

Khatam Al-Anbiya Central Headquarters:
—
We inform the brave, insightful, and heroic people of Islamic Iran that your sons in the armed forces, based on precise foresight and full preparedness, have carried out decisive and accurate responses to confront the foolish and malicious aggression of the zionist enemy. We assure you that, until the aggressor fully regrets its actions and any threat is completely repelled, our powerful operations will continue even more strongly than before.

We warn the criminal United States: any direct involvement in this war will lead to its expansion in the region and will result in severe and irreparable blows.

Iranian journalist Komeil Khoshchech:
—
When your intention is for your missile to be precision-guided, there is another prerequisite—you must have precise intelligence oversight in order to hit the exact point.

Beyond the continuous missile attacks, Iran’s intelligence dominance over the zionist enemy’s sensitive centers is noteworthy.

Note: The precise locations of the IRGC missile impacts in "Tel Aviv:"

The IDF C4I Headquarters – Central Command for Communications, Control, and Intelligence of the Israeli army
The Central Intelligence and Operations building of Israeli army in the Gav-Yam Technology Park, "Tel Aviv."

Since these targets are located near Soroka Hospital, the hospital was affected by the shockwave, but it did not sustain any damage.

Sheikh Akram Al-Kaabi, Secretary-General of the Nujaba Movement in the Islamic Resistance in Iraq:
—
May you be disappointed and disgraced, and may your mouth be filled with dirt, you criminal Trump. It is not for the likes of you to threaten a reference from the references of the Islamic nation with death!!

By Allah, and again by Allah... if you touch a single hair of the nation's guardian, Imam Khamenei, you, your allies, and your filthy followers will be under our pursuit and our fire in our entire Islamic region. Karbala will not be repeated at your hands, which are stained with the blood of the innocent, and none of you will be safe then, neither soldier nor diplomat. Indeed, everyone who holds your citizenship in our region and all your direct and indirect interests will be legitimate targets for us as long as we have life in this lowly world.

And if Allah grants us what we wish for in martyrdom, then this vengeance will be carried by our sons, our grandsons, and our great-grandsons until the Day of Resurrection. For you today are the ugly face of the liar, the deceiver, and the hypocrite. Rather, you are today subjugating the enemies of Christ and those who fought and harmed him from the extremist Jews, and you falsely and deceitfully claim to be his followers. So woe to you and may you be crushed, O betrayers of Christ and all the laws of heaven. Enough of your lying and hypocrisy, for the earth and the heavens are tired of your duplicity and hypocrisy, for your inside is malice and criminality.

You beautify your ugly exterior under the false guise of "democracy" and "self-defense." You have gathered the zionist murderers and criminals from all over the world and planted them in a so-called state in occupied Palestine on land you usurped from its rightful owners.

Know this: when Imam Khamenei says, "We are victorious," there is no choice for you but to await defeat and collapse.

Your joy in the treachery you have committed will end, and treachery is the method of the vile cowards. For the honorable and capable does not betray even his enemy, and it is not surprising from you, for you betrayed Christ and many of the prophets. So wait, for falsehood is short-lived, but the truth endures as a state, and Allah against the oppressors.

What is strange and astonishing is this deafening silence, like the silence of the graves, from so many. For today, all the forces of disbelief have bared their fangs against Islam. Today, the very core of Islam is in danger. Today, the Yazid of the age threatens and warns with his blatant transgressions against the sanctities of Islam. Today, children, women, and civilians are under the fire of their criminality. In contrast, some of those who claim to be Muslims are either with the enemy's front or are silent out of fear. Therefore, we do not hope for action from you, but we hope for it only from the free, honorable, and brave people of the world.

We do not fear death or threats when we stand for truth, for we are the followers of the Imam who declared: "Do you threaten me with death, O son of the freed slaves? Do you not know that death is a habit for us, and our honor from Allah is martyrdom?"

Sayyed Ali Al-Sistani, most senior Shia cleric in Iraq:
—
The Supreme Religious Authority in Najaf al-Ashraf renews its strong condemnation of the continued military aggression against Iran.

The threat to target Iran's supreme religious and political leaders is a criminal step that portends extremely dire consequences for the situation of the entire region, and may lead to it spiraling completely out of control.

Ali Larijani, Advisor to Sayyed Ali Khamenei:
—
Accurate understanding of the scene is crucial. Initially, the zionists thought that the initial bombings would create a rift within the Iranian nation. Also, Trump addressed the Iranian people twice, but he was unaware of the extent of the Iranian people's hatred towards him, and these statements only increased dissatisfaction. They thought that Iran's internal situation would collapse and external pressure would force Iran to surrender, but the result was completely the opposite; all political factions, even some opposition outside the country, stood behind Iran's armed forces, because it was a matter of defending the country. The Iranian people, with vigilance, dignity, and patience, endured the problems caused by the bombing and showed solidarity with the armed forces; this behavior changed the equations. Another important point that was overlooked was that nations with deep roots and civilization defend their country in times of crisis.

The United States lacks the necessary cohesion; although there are many thoughtful people in America, it seems that proper advice is not being given to officials. Trump's recent statements were very strange, and his deputy, Mr. Vance, tried to correct them, but still clumsy remarks were made, including that Iran should just surrender. Iranians will never compromise their national dignity, and Trump also sought to buy Iran's national dignity in previous negotiations but achieved no result. After that, he threatened to bomb and wanted to trample on the national dignity of Iranians, but the Iranian nation has the right to stand by its dignity and has done so. Iranians have an Ashura spirit, and such statements will be detrimental to the U.S. As the Supreme Leader also emphasized, no one has the right to speak to a great and civilized nation in such a way.

Any war can begin with an unwise decision by one party, but its end must be with wisdom, and no one wants a prolonged war. If we stand firm today, the war will end sooner; but if we show weakness, the war will be prolonged, and society will either lose its dignity or have to endure more pressure. To end the war, everyone must support the armed forces, and if "israel" feels weak, it will quickly seek negotiations through ten channels, because this regime is fragile and is currently facing internal problems. Today's steadfastness will lead to the enemy's retreat, and if we do not resist, the enemy will continue its pressures. Today is a decisive day, and resistance can change the future of the region; this steadfastness has also been reflected in the views of many ethnic groups and religions.

The Iranian nation has a special sensitivity towards its national dignity. Trump's statements caused distress to the collective spirit of the Iranian people, but this nation stands by its principles and national dignity. Soon, the enemies will be defeated, and Iran will achieve great successes. Now is the time for unity and support for the leadership and the armed forces, and we should not show any sign of weakness. Messages of support from various countries with different faiths indicate that Iran's steadfastness has inspired other nations, and the suppressed resentment of the people of the region towards the zionist regime has now become evident.

Once the war ends, we will deal with Grossi [IAEA Director].

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi:
—
The armed forces will continue to bombard the criminals targeting our people until they stop and pay the price for their criminal aggression.

We call on the "israelis" to heed our orders to evacuate before the strikes and avoid approaching military and intelligence sites.

Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps:
Statement No. 13

The start of the 15th wave of Operation True Promise 3.

A new phase of combined missile-drone attacks against military targets and industrial centers linked to the military industry in the cities of Haifa and "Tel Aviv" has begun.

Today's drone operation, involving over 100 various types of combat and suicide drones, is ongoing against military targets, especially anti-missile defense systems, in Haifa and "Tel Aviv."

An escalating trend and impact-driven missile operations against military targets and the military industry are a priority.

Iran's Supreme National Security Council:
—
Retaliation will continue until the enemy is punished and pays the price.

Any "israeli" aggression employing a different method will be met with a different, pre-planned kind of response. Should any third party intervene in the "israeli" aggression against Iran, it will be immediately responded to without hesitation, according to a specific plan.

Highlights from the speech of Ansarallah Commander Sayyed Abdul-Malik Badr El-Din al-Houthi, 19 June, 2025 (1/2):
—
The battle from Gaza to Iran is one battle, one cause, one Ummah, facing a single "israeli" enemy backed by a Western front that seeks to subjugate and control our nation.

This has been one of the bloodiest weeks in Gaza: more than 3,000 martyrs and wounded; women and children are deliberately targeted, whole neighbourhoods blown up, fuel barred, water scarce.

"Aid centres" invented by "israel" and the United States have become execution grounds, crowds are shelled or strafed daily while queuing for food, turning humanitarian work into a slaughterhouse; a broad Islamic and international campaign is demanded to end this grotesque farce.

Occupation forces stormed Al-Aqsa, expelled worshippers, sealed the compound, and deployed troops around it, steps aimed at total seizure, demolition, and Judaization that Muslims must never ignore.

Gaza’s fighters remain steadfast and effective; their great patience is already bearing vital fruit and offers a lofty model of faith and sacrifice under extreme conditions.

"Israel" raided rural Damascus after midnight: one youth executed, seven abducted (including a disabled young man); troops pushed into Quneitra villages, erected checkpoints, and violate Syrian, Jordanian, and Iraqi skies at will.

Large solidarity marches have erupted in the Netherlands and Belgium; the humanitarian voice for the oppressed Palestinian people must grow louder everywhere.

The treacherous "israeli" strike on Iran, green-lighted by Washington’s "strategic deception" talks, targeted commanders, scientists, civilians, and even a nuclear site, yet failed; Iran answered with fourteen successive missile salvos that devastated key military, intelligence, and industrial targets, sending some settlers fleeing by boat to Cyprus despite media blackout.

Inside Iran the mood is calm and united; the Islamic Republic stands on firm scientific, economic, and military ground, led by Ayatollah Khamenei, with a huge faith-based arsenal and thousands of qualified cadres, loss of any single commander cannot weaken it.

America and "israel" hold nuclear arsenals and America used them on Japanese civilians, yet they demonise Iran’s peaceful programme despite its religious ban and full inspections; the real nuclear danger is the U.S.–zionist stockpile.

Highlights from the speech of Ansarallah Commander Sayyed Abdul-Malik Badr El-Din al-Houthi, 19 June, 2025 (2/2):
—
Western motives are Iran’s unwavering support for Palestine, adoption of Ummah causes, and soaring scientific growth in medicine, engineering, and technology that has brought near self-sufficiency; targeting Iranian scientists is meant to cripple that renaissance.

London, Paris, Berlin, and Washington brand every zionist crime "self-defence," exposing their total complicity; Muslim youth must recognise this reality behind Western slogans.

All Arab and Islamic governments condemned the assault on Iran; they must hold firm, resist U.S. pressure, and bar "israel" from abusing their skies, especially Iraq, Jordan, and Syria, because neutrality is false if their airspace is open to the aggressor.

Trump’s talk of "unconditional surrender" is irrational; enemies want complete Muslim submission, an open licence to plunder wealth and trample dignity, yet the Ummah lacks neither numbers nor resources but only awareness and resolve.

Yemen’s naval and air operations against "israel" continue; the blockade of enemy shipping in the Red Sea and Bab al-Mandab is fully enforced. Weekly million-strong marches have exceeded 2,112,701 gatherings in twenty months and are described as part of jihad that builds morale and deters the foe.

A new million-man march is called for tomorrow in al-Sabeen Square and across all provinces, support for the oppressed Palestinian people, rejection of U.S.-"israeli" tyranny, endorsement of Iran’s legitimate defence, and affirmation that Yemen stands with everything we can by Palestine, the free of the Ummah, and the Islamic Republic in confronting "israel" and America.

The Qur’an is the highest source of insight; its guidance makes clear that a handful of criminal Jews must never be allowed to dominate two billion Muslims, loot their wealth, and trample their dignity.

Abu Ali Al-Askari publishes a statement in English:

In His Name, the Exalted. We reaffirm, with even greater clarity, that should the United States enter into this war, the deranged Trump shall forfeit all the trillions he dreams of seizing from this region. Operational plans have been established
for that purpose. "That is a promise never to be false." -[Qur'an, 11:65]
Undoubtedly, American bases throughout the region will become akin to duck hunting grounds. The Strait of Hormuz and the Bab al-Mandab will be shut down, and oil ports along the Red Sea will cease operation - not to mention the unforeseen surprises that may await its aircraft in the skies, "For the like of this let the workers work." -[Qur'an, 37:61]
And peace be upon the righteous servants of God.

Resistance News Network: Internet access has been cut off in Iran for the last 24 hours. Following this change, the issues that arose from "israeli" cyberattacks were resolved, with previously reported banking issues now completely fixed. "Israel" launched repeated cyberattacks on several aspects of Iranian national infrastructure in an attempt to mitigate a response.

An informed sold told Tasnim that the zionist entity's drone network relied on the internet. This network has effectively been disabled, impairing both on-the-ground targeting by agents and communication with IOF warplanes.

In the meantime, Iranian security forces continue to arrest agents, including 3 more in Isfahan today. Attached is footage of a zionist drone shot down over Lorestan.

IRGC True Promise 3 spokesman:
—
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. "And there is no might nor power except with Allah, the Most High, the Great."

The fourteenth wave of Operation True Promise 3 began with a combination of suicide drones and strategic missiles. In this operation, the command and intelligence center of the regime's army, located near a hospital, was targeted with high precision and as a pinpoint strike.

The intelligence capabilities and the pinpoint accuracy of the missiles of the armed forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran are now before the eyes of the world.

All regions of occupied Palestine have been turned into military garrisons out of desperation and fear. All military centers have been evacuated, and the zionist regime's army, under the guise of public places, has deployed its futile missile and air defense systems in the midst of urban centers.

We had previously warned that the entire sky over the occupied territories is defenseless and that no safe point would exist.

We now also warn that the lifeless body of the zionist regime will no longer have the capacity to withstand economic blows. "Indeed, we will exact vengeance upon the criminals."

Resistance News Network: Iranian air defenses renew to confront drones in northern, northwestern, and eastern Tehran as the IOF begins another round of bombing on the city.

The IOF has just carried out a major bombing raid on Lavizan neighborhood, northeast of Tehran, after striking it about an hour ago.

Statement Issued by Hezbollah Secretary-General, His Eminence Sheikh Naim Qassem on the American-"israeli" Aggression Against Iran (1/2):
—
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

The Islamic Republic of Iran stands as a beacon of global light in championing the oppressed, supporting resistance movements, and fully backing the liberation of Palestine and Al-Quds. It is a proud model of a faithful, ethical, and independent experience.

The arrogant oppressors, led by America, could not tolerate this pioneering humanitarian example for the world’s free people—nor could they endure the steadfastness of Imam Khomeini’s Iran and its great people for forty-six years in the face of all forms of aggression and blockade. They were unsettled by Iran’s political, economic, and scientific renaissance, and its advanced defensive capabilities—built through self-reliance, trust in Allah Almighty, and the unity of its people around the inspired, wise, and courageous leadership of the Grand Religious Authority and Guardian Jurist, Imam Khamenei (may his shadow endure).

These tyrants could not bear the fact that Iran inspires the resistance fighters who yearn to liberate their land—especially in Palestine, Lebanon, and across the region—and supports them while bearing all the costs and consequences of standing for truth and for the cause of our era: Palestine.

And what is the flimsy pretext for this American-sanctioned and globally-backed "israeli" aggression? It is Iran’s uranium enrichment and its peaceful nuclear program, intended to serve and advance its people. This is a right guaranteed by international law and the International Atomic Energy Agency, and it poses no threat to anyone. Rather, it is a great scientific achievement that propels Iran and the region forward based on their own capabilities, free from foreign tutelage.

Statement Issued by Hezbollah Secretary-General, His Eminence Sheikh Naim Qassem on the American-"israeli" Aggression Against Iran (2/2):
—
Global arrogance does not want Iran to be a radiant source of faith, knowledge, and freedom that shines upon the region and the world—a source of goodness for Iran and the oppressed.

The threat made by the American president to strike the highest religious authority and Guardian Jurist, Imam Khamenei (may his shadow endure), and to attack the Islamic Republic of Iran, is an attack on all the peoples of the region and the free people of the world. America is dragging the region into chaos and instability, and the world into open-ended crises, only to reap disgrace, shame, and failure. Iran has every right to defend itself, and the peoples of the region and the world’s free people have every right to stand alongside this great leader and with Iran in a united front.

We in Hezbollah and the Islamic Resistance are not neutral between Iran’s legitimate rights and independence, and America’s falsehood and aggression, alongside the cancerous gland "israel" and the global oppressors. We stand firmly with Iran in confronting this global injustice because we stand for our independence, the liberation of our land, and the freedom of our choices and decisions. We are not neutral. That is why we clearly state our stance alongside Iran, its leadership, and its people and we will act as we see fit in response to this brutal American-"israeli" aggression.

We call upon all the free people, the oppressed, the resistance fighters, the scholars, and those of sound judgment to raise their voices, to demonstrate strength, courage, and support by rallying around the most honorable and noble leadership of Imam Khamenei (may his shadow endure), and around the brave and generous Iranian people. Our unity is the path to undermining the projects of domination and thwarting the goals of aggression.

The tyrannical America and criminal "israel" will never succeed in subjugating the Iranian people or the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. This is an unbreakable people. The recent days of "israeli" aggression have proven the strength and resilience of the Iranian people and their defiance of all pressure.

They have also revealed "israel’s" weakness and the heavy losses it has suffered—unprecedented since the occupation of Palestine 77 years ago—and its desperation in seeking American support for its aggression. Still, this does not absolve us of our responsibility to stand with Iran and support it in all ways that help put an end to this tyranny and arrogance.

Allah Almighty said:
"Those to whom people said, ‘Indeed, the people have gathered against you, so fear them.’ But it [only] increased them in faith, and they said, ‘Sufficient for us is Allah, and [He is] the best Disposer of affairs.’"

A new wave of Operation True Promise 3; Today, Friday of Rage and Victory, spoke for the dear nation of Iran, as the Iranian people broadcasted the statement of victory to the entire world.

The 17th wave of missile and drone attacks by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corp, targeting military targets, military industries, and command centers of the zionist entity.

The seventeenth wave of Operation True Promise 3 has commenced, through a combined missile-drone operation utilizing long-range and ultra-heavy missiles of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.

Let the world await our surprises; the Sacred Defense triumphs with the backing of the people.

Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps:
Statement No. 14

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful,
"Fight them; Allah will punish them by your hands, humiliate them, grant you victory over them, and heal the hearts of a believing people."

To the noble people of Iran:

The 17th wave of Operation True Promise 3 has been carried out across the occupied territories, targeting a range of objectives including: military centers, defense industries, command and control hubs, companies supporting the regime’s military operations, and the airbases of "Nevatim" and "Hatzerim."

These sites have, since the beginning of the Al-Aqsa Flood, served as axes of evil in the aggression against the oppressed people of Gaza, Lebanon, Yemen, and the imposed war on the Islamic Republic of Iran.

The widespread firepower and precise strikes on "Tel Aviv," Haifa, and Bir Al-Sabi' demonstrate the increasing offensive capability of ballistic missiles, signaling a trajectory of escalating punishment until the complete retribution against the criminal zionist gang is achieved.

The solidarity and steadfastness of the Iranian people in today’s epic of Wrath and Victory, along with the encouraging messages from Iranians abroad, the support of free nations, resistance groups, and grand religious authorities, have doubled the resolve and determination of the devoted soldiers of Islamic Iran in this sacred defense.

Resistance News Network: Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi met with the foreign ministers of Germany, France, Britain, and the European Union in Geneva today.

The Iranian delegation informed European participants that no negotiations will be held until the "israeli" attack stops. Iran requested time for internal discussions, while the European participants wait in the hall.

Cyber Corps of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps:
Statement No. 4

Collapse of the Enemy’s Command and Control Structure in Cyber Operations / Domestic Services Remain Stable

In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

We inform our noble nation that since the beginning of the zionist regime’s aggression and this imposed war, numerous cyberattacks have targeted the country’s vital infrastructure and internet services, such as the banking network. Thanks to the efforts of our cyber security specialists, these attacks have largely been thwarted, and stable domestic services remain operational. However, cyber defense operations will continue until full deterrence is achieved.

So far, this cyber defense effort has yielded significant achievements, including:
1. Repelling the majority of Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks
2. Reducing access for hostile hacking teams aiming to disrupt services and steal data
3. Collapsing part of the enemy’s Command, Control, Communications, Computers, and Intelligence (C4I) structure near the battlefield in military operations
4. Partially destroying the enemy’s data collection structure used for targeted operations
5. Preventing the enemy’s exploitation of malware present on mobile phones

Other achievements have also been made by our cyber experts. However, due to the wartime circumstances and the potential misuse of this information, they cannot be disclosed at this time. God willing, they will be shared with the honorable people of Iran following victory over the criminal enemy.

The Cyber Security Command also warns all teams collaborating with the zionist regime that they have been identified and will be pursued.

Their faces shine like the full moon at night.
And like Yusuf, they are companions in the dark nights.
They have fierce charges — victory after victory.
Every injustice and occupation fades away.
So, O Lord, strengthen their hearts with resolve,
And guide them in the fields of battle.
Crown our war with victory — for we have been true
To the covenant, O Lord of Majesty.
They have fierce charges — victory after victory.
Every injustice and occupation fades away."

With the fall of Iranian creative martyrs in the zionist aggression, artists gathered in Tehran to turn their canvases into messages of resistance. On social media platforms, creatives have worked to expose the savagery of the zionist entity and the “Western silence” about it, affirming that art is a weapon.

After assassinating a number of artists in Gaza, the zionist occupation’s hand reached Iranian artists, poets, and musicians, who joined the ranks of martyrs in the early days of the aggression on Iran.

On the second day of the attacks, visual artist Mansoureh Alikhani (1967–2025) was martyred in a zionist airstrike that targeted residential areas in Tehran.
Soon after, young graphic artist Saleh Bayrami was martyred in another strike on Quds Square in the Iranian capital, along with dozens of civilian men, women, and children. The strike also caused major damage to civilian infrastructure.

Mansoureh Alikhani: Between Heritage and Modernity

Alikhani was one of the most prominent students of master Kazem Chalipa (b. 1957) and was known for a style that blended Iranian artistic heritage with the spirit of modernity.
She studied painting at Al-Zahra University, then earned a master’s degree from Sooreh University, after which she began teaching at major academic institutions such as Kashan University of Arts and the Sooreh Higher Institute.

She headed the Artistic Skills Center at Sooreh University, led dozens of workshops, and participated in local and international exhibitions. She was also known for her expertise in art book illustration and aesthetic research, and she served on the juries of prestigious festivals, including the Alif wa Bismillah Festival.

One hundred creatives signed a joint statement condemning the "israeli" aggression.

In her final days, Alikhani had been working on a large painting inspired by the Karbala tragedy, intended for the upcoming Ashura commemoration.
But the zionist airstrike that targeted residential neighborhoods in Tehran ended her life and artistic journey. She was martyred alongside other innocent civilians.

A Shrapnel Killed Saleh Bayrami

On June 15, the Iranian art world lost renowned graphic designer Saleh Bayrami in a zionist airstrike on Niavaran Street at Quds Square in central Tehran. He was waiting at a traffic light when a piece of missile shrapnel struck him directly.

Bayrami worked as a designer for various cultural and artistic magazines and newspapers in Iran, leaving a distinct mark on the contemporary visual scene.

The magazine Andisheh Pouya mourned him with heartfelt words:

“Saleh Bayrami, the quiet young man with the constant smile, who was with us as a graphic designer from the very beginning, is no longer with us. He is now among the martyrs of the treacherous "israeli" aggression on the Islamic land of Iran.”

The General Directorate of Visual Arts at the Ministry of Culture and Islamic Guidance issued a statement mourning the two martyrs, Mansoureh Alikhani and Saleh Bayrami, and commended their artistic legacies.
It emphasized that Alikhani had devoted her art to Ashura themes and aesthetic commitment, while Bayrami continued his graphic design creativity and perseverance until his final moments.
The ministry stressed that their works would remain eternal in the memory of Iranian art.

Artworks as Messages of Resistance

Since the start of the zionist aggression on Tehran on June 13, a group of Iran’s top visual artists gathered at the Islamic Revolution Art Complex (Hozeh Honari) in Tehran for a special art workshop confronting aggression with color and canvas.

The goal was not merely aesthetic—it was national and protest-driven: a tribute to martyrs, whether civilians, artists, or military leaders.
Through their artworks, the artists depicted the resilience of the Iranian people and transformed their pieces into messages of resistance.

Prominent participants included Masoud Shojaei Tabatabai, Saber Sheikh Rezaei, Mohammad Reza Doust Mohammadi, Ali Mohammad Sheikhi, and Hassan Rouh Al-Amin, in addition to many young artists.

Hassan Rouh Al-Amin was working on a new painting expressing the idea that the martyrdom of leaders does not stop the path of resistance—it fuels it.
He said:

“Successors will follow the martyrs and continue the path. Just as the martyrdom of Haj Qassem Soleimani sparked a new movement, the martyrdoms of commanders Bagheri, Hajizadeh, and Salami will leave a similar impact.”

Final Work of the Martyred Artist Mansoureh Alikhani

In a powerful gesture of solidarity, 100 Iranian artists from various disciplines—cinema, theater, music, literature, and visual arts—signed a joint statement condemning the latest "israeli" aggression, expressing their support for the victims, and describing the attack as “an unprecedented evil that demands a decisive response.”

On social media, many Iranian musicians and filmmakers voiced their rejection of the aggression, calling for an end to the “conspiracy of silence” and exposing the falsity of the Western narrative.

Artist Shahin Entezami called on the world to break this silence and to challenge the lie that “only IRGC members were targeted.”
Singer Homayoun Shajarian posted a moving poem:

“Our land and sky are wounded…
Sirens stole the sleep of our children,
And the sound of explosions replaced the songs.”

Other artists such as Karin Homayounfar, Reza Sadeghi, and Masoud Sadeghloo joined digital campaigns to raise the Iranian flag and share messages of resistance, stressing the need to defend the nation’s sovereignty and rejecting the Western narrative that describes the strikes as “precise,” while the reality reveals direct targeting of civilians and horrific massacres.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi to NBC:
—
If Washington wants diplomacy, we were engaged in it when “israel” attacked us. If the Americans are serious about diplomacy, they should contact “israel” to halt its aggression.

We have concluded that American diplomacy was a cover for what “israel” did.

We achieved nuclear technology with our own capabilities, and we can rebuild what was destroyed.

There is currently a lack of trust with the United States. Perhaps Washington has a plan to attack Iran and simply needs negotiations as cover.

A return to diplomacy is only possible when the aggression stops and the aggressor is held accountable.

We are currently striking “israeli” economic facilities after they began targeting our economic facilities.

Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps:
Statement No. 15

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

The eighteenth wave of Operation True Promise 3 was carried out in central occupied Palestine and at Ben Gurion Airport against military targets and operational support centers of the army of the zionist regime, using a massive volume of Shahed-136 suicide and combat drones and precision-guided solid and liquid-fuel missiles. By the grace and power of Allah, the predetermined targets were successfully destroyed.

It is worth noting that tonight, several squadrons of Shahed-136 drones continuously conducted missions in the skies of the occupied territories, and the most advanced air defense systems were unable to intercept them. As always, the zionists were forced to flee to shelters.

Combined missile and drone operations will continue persistently and with precise targeting.

Resistance New Network: After being severely wounded as a result of the "israeli" aggression on Iran, Ali Shamkhani, the Political Adviser to the Supreme Leader of the Revolution and the Islamic Republic of Iran, released a message to Sayyed Ali Khamenei, after his recovery. In his message he said; "Iran’s name will be immortalized in history as it always has been, and the smiles of the martyrs will be a mirror reflecting our future.

God has destined for me to remain, to face the enemies — and silence at this stage would be a betrayal of the martyrs.

To the enemies, I say: playing with fire will lead only to your defeat."

In his second statement he said; "Fate has willed for me to bear a wounded body… and so I will remain, a foe to the enemies, ready to sacrifice myself a hundred times for the Iranian people. The bright day of victory is near, illuminated by the smiles of the martyrs."

When Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar ascended to martyrdom, Ali Shamkhani said; "I watched the expressive and heroic video of the martyr Yahya Al-Sinwar fighting the most wicked villains in the world repeatedly, and I shed many tears... I bow in reverence and respect before this heroism for the liberation of Al-Quds."

And today, every revolutionary bows in reverence and respect before the heroism of Ali Shamkhani and the Islamic Republic of Iran in the battle for the liberation of Al-Quds.

Resistance New Network: Iranian drones have made impact as sirens continue to ring in southern occupied Palestine.

In occupied Bisan, an Iranian drone made direct impact on a building, causing major damage.

"Yotvata, in southeastern occupied Palestine, also sustained a direct drone strike, confirming the wide geographic reach of the operation.

Zionist media confirms that Iran has launched a large-scale attack using attack drones targeting multiple sites across the entity.

Emergency response operations are ongoing in both Bisan and "Yotvata" amid continued alerts.

Resistance News Network: The IAEA stated that the IOF bombed a centrifuge manufacturing facility in Isfahan, and that there was no nuclear material in the bombed area.

IOF warplanes carried out several strikes in central and southern Iran, including residential areas in Ahwaz and medical facilities throughout the country. In the last hour, the IOF bombed the emergency base in Hoveizeh, Khuzestan, destroying it completely, as well as the port of Mahshahr; there were no casualties. Airstrikes also targeted a military center in Shiraz, without casualties.

Iranian security forces apprehended 22 new Mossad-linked individuals in Qom. West of Tehran, security forces dismantled an "electronic bomb."

Iranian outlets reported the names of 15 new martyrs from the Army's air defense. Further, nuclear scientist Tabatabeai Qamasheh and his wife ascended to martyrdom in an IOF attack.

Hajj Abu Ali Khalil, the right-hand man of the martyr Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah (known as Sayyed's Shield), was also martyred in an attack on Tehran (Media).

Over 400 martyrs have ascended since the start of the IOF aggression. Glory to the martyrs.

Islamic Republic of Iran Army:
—
The seventh and eighth phases of the launch of dozens of destructive drones by the Army of the Islamic Republic of Iran towards the aggressor enemy have been carried out.

In the past 24 hours, the seventh and eighth phases of the drone attack were conducted, with the launch of dozens of various types of destructive drones from the Army of the Islamic Republic of Iran towards the occupied territories.

Received information indicates that most of the drones have hit their intended targets.

Resistance News Network: Yemeni Armed Forces vow to resume targeting American warships after two-month pause should the US intervene in war against Iran:
—
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

"Fight the polytheists as a whole just as they fight you as a whole, and know that Allah is with the righteous."

Reaffirming Yemen’s principled and unwavering stance—already set out in previous statements—rejecting the zionist aggression against our brothers in Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, and any Arab or Muslim nation subjected to zionist attacks:

The current battle with the "israeli" enemy, which has now aggressed against Iran—after committing genocide against the Palestinian people, carrying out continuous assaults on the Lebanese and Syrian peoples, and waging aggression against Yemen—has escalated into a comprehensive war aimed at “reshaping the Middle East.”

The "israeli" enemy seeks total dominance over the region, executing its zionist plan with full and open American support. Because the Islamic Republic of Iran is viewed as the principal obstacle to that plan, any U.S. military involvement in support of the "israeli" enemy against Iran serves the same objective: enabling the enemy to control the entire region.

Such a scenario cannot be tolerated, for it would confiscate our Ummah’s freedom, independence, and dignity—enslaving it, erasing its identity, occupying its lands, and plundering its wealth while normalizing bloodshed, dishonor, and the desecration of holy places.

"Fight in the path of Allah, and know that Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing."
"O you who believe! If you support Allah, He will support you and plant your feet firmly."

Accordingly, should the United States become involved in any attack or aggression against Iran alongside the "israeli" enemy, the Yemeni Armed Forces will target its ships and war-vessels in the Red Sea.

The Yemeni Armed Forces are closely monitoring every movement in the region—including hostile moves against our country—and, with Allah’s help, will take all legitimate measures necessary to defend our dear homeland and proud people.

Yemen, with its great people, faithful leadership, and mujahid army, will stand alongside any Arab or Muslim country that is subjected to zionist aggression or chooses to confront that aggression—whether in direct self-defense or in support of the Palestinian resistance fighters.

We will never abandon our brothers in Gaza, and we will not allow this criminal, U.S.-backed entity to carry out its schemes in the region.

Allah is sufficient for us, and He is the best Guardian, the best Patron, and the best Supporter.

Long live Yemen—free, proud, and independent.
Victory to Yemen and to all the free people of our Ummah.

Sanaa — 25 Dhu al-Hijjah 1446 AH / 21 June 2025 CE

Resistance News Network: Commander Haidar Al-Musawi of the Iraqi Sayyed Al-Shuhada Brigades ascended to martyrdom alongside Hezbollah's Hajj Abu Ali Khatib and his son in the IOF's bombing of Tehran. Glory to the martyrs.

Resistance News Network: Hajj Ramadan, as he was known throughout Palestine—in Gaza, the West Bank, and the interior—has ascended to martyrdom in Qom after a long history of struggle for Palestine, building expansive networks of military, technical, and financial support for the Palestinian resistance from Iran.

For decades, Hajj Ramadan supported the Palestinian resistance, travelling with them from place to place, including exile in Marj Al-Zuhur in 1992. Since then, he diligently worked to provide the Palestinian resistance with the expertise and technology needed to develop its tunnels, rockets, and drones, which said its word with force on October 7th, 2023.

Through generations of Palestinian resistance leadership, from Al-Rantisi and Al-Zahar to Deif, Arouri, and Sinwar, Hajj Ramadan was always standing there, more of a leader of the Palestinian resistance than his official title as the official in charge of the Palestine file in Quds Force of the IRGC. In fact, his name repeatedly emerges in official resistance correspondences through the years.

Palestine mourns Hajj Ramadan today, a pillar of the resistance who carried Palestine on his shoulders for 35 years, his name inscribed in every tunnel, bullet, and rocket with which the resistance struck the occupiers. His body has departed, but his legacy will remain a beacon of resistance, a giant who lived and died for the sake of Palestine, from its river to its sea.

Glory to you, Brigadier General Saeed Izadi. You departed with your head raised after fulfilling your duty with full sincerity, joining Haniyeh, Deif, Baqeri, Sinwar, and Sayyed Hassan.

Sayyed Al-Shuhada Brigades of the Islamic Resistance of Iraq:
—
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
"And never think of those who have been killed in the cause of Allah as dead. Rather, they are alive with their Lord, receiving provision."
This is the truth of Allah Almighty.

With hearts believing in Allah's decree and destiny, and with souls filled with pride and steadfastness on the path of truth, the General Secretariat of the Islamic Resistance in Iraq – Sayyed Al-Shuhada Brigades – mourns:

The Martyred Fighter Commander, Sayyed Haidar Al-Musawi, Head of the Security Unit, who ascended to his Lord as a martyr on the Iraqi-Iranian border strip, following a treacherous zionist targeting. He was accompanied by the Martyr Abu Ali al-Khalil, companion of martyr Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, and his son, the martyr Mahdi al-Khalil.

We have lost dear brothers and loyal leaders who dedicated themselves to defending the land and the faith. But their pure blood will remain beacons of guidance and light on the path of freedom and dignity.

21 June 2025
24 Dhul Hijjah 1446

Sayyed Al-Shuhada Brigades of the Islamic Resistance in Iraq:
—
You lived a silent life, steadfast in your convictions, ever-present in the battlefield, absent from the spotlight.

Yet today, you ascend to glory, transcending all words, for you chose to be among those whom the material world could not allure, but who sought the afterlife with truth and certainty.

The martyr commander Sayyed Haidar Al-Musawi.

Resistance News Network: Iranian air defense have been active in Isfahan, Iran for the last hour, following a new wave of zionist attacks. Air defenses are also active in Tabriz in western Iran.

The IOF is launching missiles and drones towards Iran from above Iraqi airspace. Most of the attacks today were focused on the western and southwestern areas of Iran, including heavy strikes on Ahwaz, which targeted and destroyed a hospital.

Spokesman for the Khatim Al-Anbiya Headquarters of the Iranian Armed Forces:
—
Despite possessing some of the world’s most advanced and expensive missile-defense systems and enjoying full U.S. support, the zionist regime has lost a large share of its radar and defensive capacity and now suffers acute shortages of munitions, equipment, and air-defense systems.

These blows demonstrate the intelligence dominance and operational prowess of Iran’s armed forces in missile and drone warfare.

We warn that shipping any military or radar hardware—whether by sea or air—to help the zionist regime will be regarded as direct participation in aggression against the Islamic Republic of Iran and therefore will be treated as a a legitimate target.

Yemeni President and Supreme Commander of the Yemeni Armed Forces, Mahdi Al-Mashat:
—
We will work to confront and resist any participation in the aggression against Iran by all legitimate means.

We call on all Arab and Islamic countries, and all peace-loving nations, to make the same decision instead of waiting to be targeted one after another.

We have every right to our decision—humanely, religiously, morally—and it is supported by international and regional charters and Yemeni laws.

When countries abandon their responsibility to protect international peace and security and instead become supporters and participants in the aggression on Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, Yemen, and Iran, the solution is a strong and unified stance from everyone.

The fire will reach every country if we do not all act together to stop the plan to violate the nations targeted by arrogant powers.

Any hostile act targeting any Islamic country—we will stand against it and confront it. This has been our stance before, and we have previously declared it.

America will bring nothing new if it joins the “israeli” enemy in its aggression against Iran—except for entangling itself further. Everyone will see that.

We will instruct the Humanitarian Operations Center to take the necessary measures in accordance with Yemeni law.

Anyone who becomes involved or participates with “israel” in its aggression must pay the price for their decision.

We will instruct the Foreign Ministry to send a memorandum to notify the United Nations of our monitoring of the preparations and readiness of some member states to participate with the Israeli entity in its aggression against Iran.

Leader of the Iranian Islamic Revolution, Imam Sayyed Ali Khamenei:
—
The Palestinian cause is fundamental to us, and Palestine's victory is also inevitable.

Resistance News Network: The Zainabiyoun Brigade, founded by Hajj Qassem Soleimani and comprised of thousands of Pakistani fighters, issued a statement announcing its full support for Iran and its readiness to engage in the war against "israeli" and American interests in the region.

"Your blood is our blood. Our hearts, souls, and minds stand with you. Know that the people of Pakistan stand shoulder to shoulder with you."

The Zainabiyoun Brigade threatened—mirroring positions from Iraq, Yemen, Lebanon, and Iran—that if America enters this war, or if Sayyed Ali Khamenei is harmed, their fighters will target American interests worldwide, especially in the Middle East and Pakistan, in armed operations.

"Signed in our blood, the soldiers of Hajj Qassem Soleimani."

Deputy of Public Relations for the IRGC, Ali Mohammed Naeini:
—
The result of the missile strikes on the occupied territories in the eighteenth wave was the successful targeting of 14 strategic military points in Haifa and "Tel Aviv."

The "Sail Tower" in the center of Haifa, which hosts the office of the artificial intelligence company AI12 Labs and other military industries software companies for the regime's Ministry of War, was targeted in this operation with a long-range Qadr-F missile.

Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps:
—
Tonight, in this 19th wave of True Promise 3, a vast swarm of attack and suicide drones set off hours earlier toward strategic targets across the regime, from the north to the south of the occupied lands.

I warn the zionist regime’s confused air-defense system to be on alert; this operation will be continuous, sustained, disrupting their balance, Allah willing.

Resistance News Network: Officials in Qom and Isfahan confirmed that part of the Fordow nuclear site was bombed and that attacks took place near the Isfahan and Natanz nuclear sites. This came after the detection of enemy targets and the activation of Iranian air defenses.

IRIB confirmed that the sites have been evacuated of nuclear material and people before the attack.

After the US took credit for the bombing, the IOF announced the suspension of all non-essential educational activities, gatherings, and work in the zionist entity.

Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC):
Statement No. 16

The 20th wave of Operation “True Promise 3” has begun with the launch of 40 solid- and liquid-fuel missiles.

For the first time, the IRGC Aerospace Force employed third-generation Kheibarshekan multi-warhead ballistic missiles, using new surprise tactics to achieve greater accuracy, destructiveness and effectiveness.

Targets struck in this wave include Ben Gurion Airport, the regime’s biological research center, and its alternate command-and-control sites. The guided missiles used feature maneuverable re-entry warheads, remain steerable until impact, and carry varied high-explosive, highly destructive payloads.

Once again, sirens sounded only after the precise hits, throwing the enemy off balance. We stress that the principal capacities of the Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran have yet to be brought into this sacred defense.

Iranian Foreign Ministry:
—
We stand firmly in the face of the American military aggression and the crimes of the zionist entity in defense of our security.

Resistance factions condemn the U.S attack on Iranian nuclear sites.

Hamas called it a dangerous escalation, a violation of international law, and a threat to global peace. Hamas holds both the U.S. and "israel" fully responsible for the consequences and expresses full solidarity with Iran’s leadership and people, affirming confidence in Iran’s ability to defend its sovereignty and resist global arrogance.

The Ansarallah Political Bureau condemned the U.S. attack on Iran as a grave violation of international law and a threat to regional and global security. Tying it to unwavering U.S. support for "israel", the Bureau framed the strike as part of a broader aggression on pro-Palestinian and anti-zionist forces. Ansarallah warns that if the broader Islamic nation does not act, future attacks will extend beyond Gaza and Iran. The statement reaffirms solidarity with Iran and calls on the Muslim world to unite in resistance against American and "israeli" hegemony.

Ansarallah warned the aggression would not weaken Iran’s resistance and urged the Muslim world to break its silence, unite, and confront zionist-American domination.

The Islamic Jihad Movement in Palestine described the U.S. as the primary enemy of regional progress and the main sponsor of zionist terrorism. The PIJ warned that U.S. policies threaten not only the region but global and even American interests, serving only the goals of "israel's" war-driven leadership. Reaffirming full support for Iran, Islamic Jihad expressed confidence in the Iranian people’s ability to defend their rights and sovereignty, and called on the broader Muslim world to recognize this aggression as part of a larger plan for domination.

The Palestinian Mujahideen Movement strongly condemned the U.S. attack on Iran as a blatant violation of sovereignty and international law, carried out to serve zionist interests. It described the U.S. and "israel" as being the main sources of global terrorism and a threat to world peace. Expressing full solidarity with Iran’s leadership and people, the movement affirmed confidence in Iran’s ability to defend itself and called on the Muslim world to unite in resistance, stressing that this aggression targets the entire region’s strength and resources.

The Popular Resistance Committees in Palestine strongly condemned the U.S. strike on Iran—targeting Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan—as a dangerous escalation and an attack on the entire region, calling for a united stance from all free peoples to deter such aggression. They described the U.S. aggression as an extension of zionist crimes aimed at subjugating any force that resists their agenda, and labeled the American administration as the root of global evil. The PRC emphasized that the attack was meant to defend "israel" after its failures against Iran’s military response, which exposed its weakness. Reaffirming full solidarity with Iran, the Committees praised the Iranian people’s resilience and called for unity across the region to confront the joint U.S.-"israeli" project of domination.

Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps:
—
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

Honorable and heroic people of Iran!

In the early hours of today, the criminal U.S. regime, in full coordination with the zionist regime, carried out an illegal military strike on the peaceful nuclear facilities of the Islamic Republic of Iran—an unprecedented, blatant crime that clearly violates the UN Charter, international law, the NPT, and the fundamental principle of respect for national sovereignty and territorial integrity.

From the first moments of the zionists’ operation, Iran’s armed forces recognized the comprehensive U.S. backing that shaped and executed this aggression. Yet again it has proven the aggressors’ inability to alter the battlefield’s realities: they lack both initiative and the capacity to escape severe reprisals.

Washington’s repetition of its past failed follies reveals strategic weakness and blindness to regional facts. By directly attacking peaceful facilities, it has placed itself on the front line of aggression. Thanks to Allah and the IRGC’s full intelligence coverage, the flight bases of the aircraft involved have been identified and are under surveillance.

As we have repeatedly declared, the number, spread and size of U.S. military bases in the region are not strengths—they only double their vulnerability.

We firmly remind all that Iran’s indigenous, peaceful nuclear technology cannot be eliminated by any strike; rather, this attack will strengthen the resolve of our young, committed scientists to advance and develop it further.

The great Iranian nation and the world know well that the IRGC understands this full-scale hybrid war arena and will never be cowed by the clamor of Trump and the criminal clique ruling the White House and "Tel Aviv."

In response to these aggressions, Operation “True Promise 3”—whose 20 waves the zionists have already tasted—will continue with precision, purpose and force against the zionist regime’s infrastructure, strategic centers and interests.

Today’s U.S. terrorist assault also entitles the Islamic Republic, under the legitimate right of self-defence, to employ responses that lie beyond the aggressor bloc’s deluded calculations. The invaders must await regrettable responses.

Relying on the power of Almighty Allah, following the directives of the Commander-in-Chief, backed by our great nation, and supported by the Islamic Resistance Front and freedom-seekers worldwide, we stand firm in defense of Iran’s dignity and security. With God’s favor, we shall witness history-making victories for Iran, the Iranian people, and the entire Muslim Ummah.

“Victory comes only from Allah, the Almighty, the Wise.”

1 Tir 1404 (22 June 2025)

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi:
—
Everyone must understand that we pursued diplomacy, but the United States and the zionist regime launched aggressive attacks on Iran.

It is illogical to ask Iran to return to diplomacy after this path was blown up by "israel" and the United States.

The United States has proven it holds no respect for the UN Charter and does not abide by international law.

The international community must address the threat to the UN Charter, and it is the United States that previously reneged on the nuclear agreement.

The Security Council must shoulder its responsibilities and prevent such threats against Iran. We will defend our sovereignty and our people.

Iran does not possess nuclear weapons, yet it is under attack by nuclear-armed powers.

It seems the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) can no longer protect us and this poses a dangerous challenge.

I will head to Moscow to meet President Putin; Russia is a friend of Iran, and we have a strategic partnership.

I will hold serious consultations with President Putin. We continue to work with Russia, a permanent member of the UN Security Council.

This is not merely a U.S. attack on our facilities, it is an assassination of international law.

We are committed to continuing the defense of our country, and our armed forces are fully prepared to defend our sovereignty against any aggression.

We have a wide range of options to respond to the American aggression against Iran.

When the aggression against Iran ceases, we can then talk about how to resume the diplomatic path.

Ali Shamkhani, Advisor to Leader Sayyed Ali Khamenei:
—
Any aggression against Iran's peaceful nuclear facilities would be a blatant violation of international law.

Like Netanyahu, Trump makes his international decisions without thinking, and in ways that contradict the interests of the United States.

The surprises will continue.

Even if we assume the complete destruction of nuclear sites, the game is not over, because enriched materials, indigenous knowledge, and political will still exist.

The political and practical initiative is now in the hands of the party that has the right to legitimate defense, knows how to play intelligently, and avoids random strikes.

Iranian President Masoud Pezeskhian:
—
The Islamic Republic of Iran will not compromise on defending its sovereignty, asserting that the United States of America must receive an appropriate response to its military aggression against Iran.

Iran did not start any war. America is the one who initiated the aggression against us. If you were in our place, what would you do? It is natural for the aggressor to receive the appropriate response.

We were subjected to a direct military attack, and we defended ourselves firmly and powerfully. We always declare our readiness for engagement and dialogue within the framework of international laws, but the other side does not accept logic; rather, it seeks to impose surrender on our people, and this is what we will never accept.

It is self-evident that any aggression will be responded to in the appropriate manner.

Our people will never surrender to force and threats.

Resistance News Network: Hezbollah strongly condemns the U.S. airstrike on Iran’s peaceful nuclear facilities, calling it a reckless and unlawful act that endangers regional and global stability. Hezbollah accuses the U.S., under President Trump, of imperial aggression aimed at subjugating sovereign nations, and views the strike as a failed attempt to achieve what "israel" could not. Hezbollah affirms full solidarity with Iran, praises its restraint and right to defend itself, and warns that the attack will only strengthen Iran’s resolve. It calls on the international community, especially Arab and Islamic nations, to support Iran and hold the U.S. accountable for risking catastrophic consequences.

Resistance News Network: The Spokesperson for the Iranian Parliament's National Security and Foreign Policy Commission confirms that the Iranian parliament will officially review the option of withdrawal from the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT).

He stated that most commission members are calling for a halt to cooperation with the IAEA. The commission members called for the necessity of a decisive, deterrent, and proportionate response to US aggression.

Resistance News Network: Attached are photos of the Fordow, Isfahan, and Natanz nuclear facilities in Iran after they were targeted with a total of 14 GBU-57 bombs by American B2 stealth warplanes, in violation of the NPT. In addition, over 30 BGM-109 Tomahawk cruise missiles were launched by American submarines.

The GBU-57 bomb is not an ordinary bomb; the GPS-guided bomb weighs 30,000 lbs (14 tons) in total and is designed to penetrate over 60 meters (200 feet) before its 6,000 lbs warhead detonates.

It is the first time that it has ever been used, and it is the successor to the "Mother of All Bombs," the American GBU-43, weighing 21,600 lbs in total, which was used for the first time in 2017 in Afghanistan.

The US used 14 of their GBU-57s, which is over half of their estimated stockpile.

While the IOF's US-provided 2,000 lbs bunker buster bombs have caused extensive damage in Gaza, Lebanon, and Syria, even their most destructive bombs (BLU-109 and GBU-28)—like those used against Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah—penetrate about 10% of the depth of the GBU-57 and weigh one sixth as much.

Fordow is one of the most hardened targets, at a depth of 90-110 meters under rock, which requires repeated bombing by such bombs for its destruction. American warplanes launched the GBU-57s in quick succession to deepen the impacts. However, Natanz centrifuges are about ~50 meters deep. There is no risk of radiation leakage, and the Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant (the only operation nuclear power plant, not a facility used for enrichment like the others) has not been targeted.

Resistance News Network: The IOF carried out an airstrike in central Tehran moments ago, and air defenses activated east of the capital. The IOF also bombed military sites in Tabriz, Yazd, Bushehr, and Zanjan, resulting in several martyrs.

At dawn, the US launched strikes on Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan nuclear sites. Later in the morning, IOF airstrikes targeted Tabriz and sites in western Iran. The IOF claimed to bomb two F-5 fighter jets Dezful Airport in Iran.

After this, the IRGC launched a barrage using Kheybar-Shekan 2 multi-warhead missiles for the first time. The IOF then bombed a warehouse in Yazd province, and the enemy was engaged by air defense. At least 9 martyrs ascended in Yazd, including 7 IRGC members and 2 soldiers. In Bushehr, the Iranian air defenses successfully intercepted an IOF drone. In Zanjan, 3 IRGC members ascended to martyrdom as a result of an IOF strike. In Fars, the air defense reportedly shot down an "israeli" aircraft.

In Kermanshah, a mother and her 6-year-old child were martyred, while the father and 3-year-old child were wounded. In Tabriz, two 7-year-old boys were martyred.

In Kermanshah, Iranian security forces apprehended 3 new spies, including a European national. One spy reportedly committed suicide during a raid. A Mossad agent was also arrested in Parand, Tehran. In southern Iran, 53 Mossad-linked agents have been arrested in the Fars province.

Resistance News Network: The Economist, a media arm of the US-zionist military, publishes that the fortified Fordow nuclear facility in Iran cannot be destroyed by American bunker-buster bombs and "can only be destroyed by nuclear weapons or ground forces." This followed from America's first-ever bombing of Iran this morning using its most powerful non-nuclear bombs.

This media incitement paves the way for further zionist-American bombing, to attempt to achieve "israel's" stated goals of "destroying Iran's nuclear program." Zionist media reported that the US and "israel" are coordinating in strikes of Iranian air defense sites, after the US provided the IOF with a list of targets.

While the extent of the current destruction to Fordow is unclear at this time, the US and "israel" are attempting to pave the way for more bombing, especially following Trump's statement tying the continuation of US bombings of Iran to a cessation of fighting between Iran and "israel."

The Islamic Jihad Movement spokesperson, Mohammed Al-Haj Musa:
—
And when the Islamic Republic responded—striking back—the sirens wailed in occupied Palestine, in the skies over the usurped land.
I tell you, those sirens also wailed in the hearts of all Palestinians, for this Iranian response was a response on our behalf. These Iranian strikes were for us, on our path.

This people of Gaza, who have endured a brutal war, a continuing genocide, and starvation—living now in tents or beneath the rubble—have found someone who stands by them and defends them in the fullest sense of the word.

We affirm that what has taken place in various arenas of support—and is now manifesting in the Islamic Republic of Iran—has its central cause in Palestine, and is for the sake of Palestine.

The Islamic Republic is not being attacked or confronted today because it “intervenes,” as some claim. No—it’s because it says “No” It refuses to yield. It refuses to abandon the Palestinian people amid a global alignment supporting the zionist occupation and its genocidal war.

This, then, is a war for Gaza. A war for Palestine.
Since the dawn of the Revolution in 1979, the slogans of Imam Khomeini and all the leaders who gave what they could—including the signature of the martyr Qassem Soleimani on every launcher and missile that reached the expanse of Palestine’s geography—affirm that the jihad of the Republic is a support for the Palestinian people.

So let it be clear: this is not some emotional bias.
The Palestinian people today are making their choices.
Despite all the harsh conditions, we still believe—and will continue to believe—that the rifle is the only legitimate solution, and that resistance in all its forms is our unifying path.

We reject and denounce all forms of sectarian or doctrinal division.

We are now at a true crossroads:
Either you are with the nation of Muhammad ibn Abdullah—the nation that resists occupation, oppression, and humiliation—or you stand in the camp of those who seek Al-Quds as “Yerushalayim,” defending and supporting the occupation.

The matter is now crystal clear.
There is no gray area.
This is the certainty of the Palestinian people.

The Palestinian joy today is not like any other joy.
Who rejoices?
The hungry.
The wounded.
The oppressed.
The grieving.
The burned—in heart and soul.
The one whose home has been destroyed.
Whose family has been killed.
Who suffers and suffers again.

He stands and smiles in these moments, for he sees hope in a nation—
a nation now embodied by the Islamic Republic—
a true nation amid Arab abandonment.

A nation that says “no” to the occupier in the harshest of circumstances.

The Islamic Republic does not possess what the United States does.
This is what everyone must understand.

The Islamic Republic does not fight from behind a shield that protects its leaders and people.
Its resources are limited, but it has prepared its people spiritually and psychologically for forty years to belong to this nation.

It has prepared its people to become the strategic weapon of the Islamic Republic:
this certainty in the hearts of Iranians that they belong to the Islamic Ummah, and that they are duty-bound to support the cause with their blood and lives—to sacrifice everything they can.

Therefore, it is only natural for us as Palestinians to say that this blood is our blood, that this cause is our cause.
Any strike on Tehran is, to us, a strike on Gaza, on Al-Quds, on Palestinian Akka.

We rejoice—we are filled with joy—when these missiles and shells strike at the heart of the entity.
We feel that our occupied, sacred land—this land of the prophets—resonates with these flames, turning into fire upon the occupier, scorching him in anger and vengeance for all the sacrifices made by the Palestinian people, and in response to the continuing crimes of the enemy.

Speaker of the Parliament of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Mohammed Bagher Ghalibaf:
—
We will deliver a decisive response to "israel"; cooperation with the [IAEA] Agency will be suspended.

The direct involvement of the United States in the war is a sign of "israel’s" weakness.

An attack on nuclear facilities is an attack on Iranian soil and on diplomacy itself.

A draft bill to suspend cooperation with the Agency until concrete guarantees are received is on the Parliament’s agenda.

The Agency has turned into a political tool and has failed to uphold its commitments.

We fully support the armed forces’ response to the American aggression.

Through its strong and dignified conduct, Iran has proven it is not a threat to the region; the real enemy is the zionist regime.

Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC):
Statement No. 17

The 21st wave of Operation "True Promise 3" has begun in response to the continued crimes of the bloodthirsty zionist regime, involving the launch of both solid and liquid-fueled missiles, alongside a combined assault by smart drones.

In this operation, for the first time, the multi-warhead Kaybar (Qadr H) ballistic missile was used, employing new and surprising tactics for more precise, destructive, and effective strikes. Strategic targets across the occupied territories, from north to south and in the center, were successfully hit.

It should be noted that these impact-focused operations will continue with even stronger and more forceful strikes, utilizing new specialized tactics and exploiting weaknesses in the enemy’s air defense systems. Furthermore, drone combat operations will continue uninterrupted throughout the day, forcing the usurpers of the occupied lands to constantly live through sirens, panic, and sheltering.

Iranian Armed Forces Chief of Staff, Amir Moussawi in a new speech:
—
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

Trump, trampling every international law, violated the airspace of our beloved Iran, struck three points on our sacred soil, and inflicted damage. Whatever the scale of these losses by this unwise action, the very act of this crime and desecration will not go unanswered, Allah willing.

Trump’s move was born of desperation—to rescue his proxy, the zionist regime, and especially Netanyahu himself. When he saw the signs of weakness and defeat in Netanyahu, he tried to give him artificial respiration with this attack. Yet this was a grave mistake; we had already warned many times of its consequences.

We will, by Allah's permission, continue punishing Netanyahu until he is brought to utter misery, and we will respond firmly to this American blunder in proportion to the aggression, by the grace and power of Allah.

Once again, I humbly thank our dear, incomparable, and perceptive nation. The presence of the people, the morale of the people, the steadfastness of the people, the solidarity and empathy of the people, which is reminiscent of the days of the Sacred Defense, the support they give to the armed forces, the actions they take to help each other.

These are all our source of strength, the fuel for our missiles and drones. The fire of the nation’s love, placed in the capable hands of our warriors, will turn into blazing stones of Sejjil that burn the enemy’s roots.

From the depths of my heart, I truly love you, people of Iran. I, an Iranian soldier, were I to be killed a thousand times for this people and their beliefs, I would still wish to return to life for the love of the people, to fight the enemies of this nation and be martyred. It is self-evident that the children of such a nation in the armed forces will never, ever compromise with any aggressor; we will respond with power, Allah willing. And there is no power and no strength except through Allah, the Most High, the Most Great.

Spokesman for the Khatim Al-Anbiya Headquarters of the Iranian Armed Forces:
—
Criminal America, in its continued full-scale support for the zionist regime's aggression blatantly violated the sovereignty of the Islamic Republic of Iran last night, directly entering into war with Iran and trespassing upon Iran's sacred soil.

The hostile act was carried out with the aim of reviving the dying zionist regime. However, not only was it futile, but it will also broaden the scope of legitimate and diverse targets for the Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran and lay the groundwork for the expansion of war across the region.

We assure you that, following the aggression, the hands of the clock will no longer turn in your favor. The warriors of Islam, in response to this crime, will carry out powerful and targeted operations that will inflict heavy, regretful, and unpredictable consequences upon you, God willing.

[In English] Gambler Trump, you can start this war, but we will be the ones to end it.

Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps:

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
"So whoever has assaulted you, then assault him in the same way that he has assaulted you."

Noble and resilient nation of Iran!

Following the blatant military aggression by the criminal regime of the United States of America against the peaceful nuclear facilities of the Islamic Republic of Iran and its clear violation of international law, with the planning of the Supreme National Security Council and the leadership of the Khatam al-Anbiya (PBUH) Central Headquarters, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, under the sacred code "Ya Aba Abdullah Al-Hussein (PBUH)," has targeted the Al-Udeid base in Qatar with a devastating and powerful missile attack in Operation Tidings of Victory.

This base is the headquarters of the Air Force Central Command and the largest strategic asset of the terrorist American army in the West Asia region.

The message of this decisive action by the nation's sons in the armed forces to the White House and its allies is clear and explicit: "The Islamic Republic of Iran, relying on Almighty God and its faithful and renowned people, will under no circumstances leave unanswered any aggression against its territorial integrity, sovereignty, and national security."

With the American enemy's aggression, it became clear to all that the evil of the zionists was an extension of the American design. Accordingly, we remind you that in this national defense, the American military bases and mobile targets in the region are not a point of strength, but rather a great weakness and the Achilles' heel of this warmongering regime.

On the eve of the month of Muharram, the month of mourning for the master of martyrs, Hazrat Aba Abdullah Al-Hussein (PBUH), we once again warn the enemies of Islamic Iran that the era of "hit and run" is over. The will of the country's powerful and popular armed forces will lead any repetition of mischief to the acceleration of the collapse of the pillars of the American military in the region, their humiliating escape from West Asia, and the realization of the common goal of the Islamic Ummah and the freedom-seeking nations of the world in eliminating the cancerous tumor of zionism.

Iran's Supreme National Security Council:
—
The attack on the Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar is a response that falls within the framework of reciprocal retaliation and is consistent with international law and the right of legitimate defense. Our armed forces successfully carried out the missile operation, targeting the US Al Udeid Air Base, one of the largest US military bases in the region.

The number of missiles used in the operation was equal to the number of bombs used by the United States in its attack on Iranian nuclear facilities.

The military target struck was located far from residential areas and urban centers in the State of Qatar.

The operation did not pose any threat or danger to the brotherly Qatari people or to the security of the Qatari state.

We emphasize the fraternal and historical relations that bind us to the State of Qatar, and this response has not and will not undermine these relations. Rather, it comes within the framework of legitimate defense of sovereignty and national dignity.

Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine:
—
The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) praises the Iranian operation “Tidings of Victory,” which targeted American military bases as a legitimate response to the blatant U.S. attack on the nuclear facilities of the Islamic Republic of Iran.

It is Iran’s sovereign right, as an independent state, to defend its land, people, and resources, and to respond to aggression by targeting American and zionist bases wherever they may be. This right is guaranteed by international law and the United Nations Charter.

This response represents a significant step forward in breaking the U.S.-zionist hegemony and deterrence in the region.

The heavy missiles of the Tidings of Victory that pounded American bases in the Gulf reflect a qualitative development in the balance of deterrence and confirm that Iran possesses both the will and the capacity to respond. Iran will not allow the American-zionist enemy to dictate the terms or arena of confrontation.

All the American threats and warnings issued in recent days failed to dissuade Tehran from exercising its sovereign right to respond. This should serve as motivation for all the forces of the nation and the free people of the world to strengthen the front of resistance and enhance coordination among the factions in confronting this dual American-zionist aggression.

As we affirm our full support for the Islamic Republic of Iran in its just battle against U.S.-zionist arrogance, we call on all peoples and their living forces to clearly express their rejection of the aggression and to stand by Iran and the resistance in the battle to defend sovereignty and dignity.

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

"And do not walk upon the earth exultantly. Indeed, you will never tear the earth [apart], and you will never reach the mountains in height."
The is the truth of Allah the Almighty.

As we condemn in word and deed the American crime against the Islamic Republic, we say to the criminal Trump this time: we are not addressing you, rather:

"I find your status too low to address, your scolding too weighty, and your reproach too excessive—but the eyes are tearful and the hearts are burning. Oh, what great astonishment for the killing of the noble Party of God at the hands of the Party of Satan, the freed captives."

You are nothing but a puppet manipulated by a handful of deranged zionists at the expense of your country’s interests and people. Instead, we address the remaining sane minds in America: know that this zionist puppet will write the end of your country and bring calamities upon you. This heinous crime, this blatant transgression and violation of all international and moral laws and conventions, and the disdain for the world in general, is to drag it into a war that spares no one, and for our region in particular.

Were it not for the grace of God and the wisdom of the leadership of the Islamic Republic of Iran, and its measured response, the deadly radiation from your reckless government’s strikes would have reached our beloved Iraq and all neighboring Islamic countries.

All of this will not pass without accountability and punishment. There is no place for you in our land, which you plunder with one hand and sabotage with the other. Know that Islamic Iran is not alone, as you delude yourselves through the words of some cowards or traitors. Rather, all the free people of the world stand with the Islamic Republic in its just war. And Allah is the supporter of His allies—while you have no supporter.

Fatah al-Intifada Movement mourns the mujahid commander, Major General Mohammad Saeed Izadi Hajj Ramadan, Head of the Palestine Branch in the Quds Force of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, as a martyr on the path to Al-Quds.

The greatness of the martyrdom of commanding men is the greatness of faith and commitment to the path of the founding leader, Imam Khomeini, may Allah have mercy on him, and in the footsteps of the Leader and Guide, Imam Ali Khamenei, may Allah preserve him — in toppling the zionist-American-Western-Atlantic project and in supporting the oppressed Palestinian people in restoring their legitimate historical rights to their homeland: all of Palestine, from the river to the sea.

Victory to the Islamic Republic of Iran
Victory to Palestine and its valiant resistance

Glory and eternity to the righteous martyrs

Indeed, it is a revolution until victory

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi via X:
—
As Iran has repeatedly made clear: Israel launched war on Iran, not the other way around.

As of now, there is NO "agreement" on any ceasefire or cessation of military operations. However, provided that the "israeli" regime stops its illegal aggression against the Iranian people no later than 4 am Tehran time, we have no intention to continue our response afterwards.

The final decision on the cessation of our military operations will be made later.
—
Note: The current time is 4:30 AM in Tehran. Iranian sources report no new bombing since 4:00 AM.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi via X:
—
The military operations of our powerful Armed Forces to punish "israel" for its aggression continued until the very last minute, at 4am.

Together with all Iranians, I thank our brave Armed Forces who remain ready to defend our dear country until their last drop of blood, and who responded to any attack by the enemy until the very last minute.

Statement from the General Secretariat of the Supreme National Security Council of Iran:
—
O dear and resilient Iranian people,

In the aftermath of the cowardly zionist aggression, the courage and sacrifices of your sons in the armed forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran—under the guidance of the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces—demonstrated deterrent capability and decisive retaliation. They expanded the scope of the response and delivered a painful blow to the enemy. This response ultimately showed that American and zionist bases, from West Asia to deep inside the occupied territories, have all become potential targets of attacks.

The vigilance, wise use of opportunity, steadfast resistance, and the unprecedented unity of your people thwarted the enemy’s main plot, turned the threat into an opportunity, and paved the way for the resilience of the children and forces of Islam. It also revealed to the world the extraordinary power of the faithful fighters who possess initiative and creativity. This power was displayed over twelve days of bloody resistance and was always prepared to respond at the right time and with the necessary scale to any aggression.

The divine gift along this path—alongside balanced conduct, deep understanding, strategic planning, patience of the fighters, and the families of martyrs and sacrificers—was victory over the enemy, breaking its prestige, rejecting the logic of surrender, and opening an irreversible path forward.

Accordingly, the Islamic Republic of Iran declares, with full awareness and certainty, that its armed forces, with the support of the people, are fully prepared to deliver a decisive and firm response to any aggression or threat from the enemy, at any time and in any place.

And victory is only from Allah, the Almighty, the Wise.

Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC):
Statement No. 18

The 22nd Wave of Operation True Promise 3 Delivered a Historic and Unforgettable Lesson to the zionist Enemy

Last night, the army of the terrorist and criminal zionist regime, overwhelmed by the heroic Iranian nation’s sacred defense and desperately pleading with its American partners for a ceasefire, martyred a number of our fellow citizens in a brutal attack.

In response to this blind crime, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), just moments before the imposed ceasefire came into effect, launched the 22nd wave of Operation True Promise 3, striking military and logistical centers of the zionist regime with 14 missiles across the occupied lands, delivering a historic and unforgettable lesson to the zionist enemy.

As previously promised, it was the sons of the nation in the armed forces who imposed their will on the zionist enemy and they continue to closely and vigilantly monitor the enemy’s movements.

Iranian Ministry of Health:
—
107 people have been martyred and 1,342 others injured in zionist airstrikes over the past 24 hours.

The total number of martyrs from zionist attacks since June 13 has reached 606, with 5,332 wounded.

Spokesman for the Khatim Al-Anbiya Headquarters of the Iranian Armed Forces:
—
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

“Indeed, We have granted you a clear victory.”

The troubled zionist regime has become accustomed to lying, relying on the baseless and flimsy claims of the criminal Netanyahu and Trump.

This aggressive regime has violated Iranian airspace with its drones, and since this morning, it has targeted several areas inside the country with aggression and attacks.

While the Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran absolutely do not trust the artificial and false assurances issued by the criminal leaders of America and the aggressive zionist regime, they possess full intelligence and operational oversight and are 100% ready to confront any potential enemy aggression.

We warn America and the zionist entity against the consequences of continuing their aggression. We call on them to learn from the crushing blows dealt by the brave fighters fighting for Islam, extending from the north to the south of the occupied territories, and from the attacks on the American Al-Udeid base. If they fail to do so, they will face a more severe and broader response, with broader targets.

Iranian President Masoud Pezeskhian in a message to the Iranian people:
—
This historic victory proudly belongs to the great, civilization-building Iranian people.

Today, after the valiant resistance of our great and history-making people, we are witnessing a ceasefire and the end of the 12-day war.

This war was imposed on the Iranian people through the adventurism and incitement of the zionist entity.

The world was watching the great power of Iran, which was supported by its people.

The one who started this imposed war is a terrorist enemy, while Iran determined its end with the will and power of the great Iranian people.

The beginning of the terrorist attack, with flimsy and repeated pretexts, coincided with the diplomatic efforts made by Iran to remove any misunderstanding in public opinion.

Iran was present at the negotiating table, and the world witnessed Iran adopting a coherent position and consistent decisions.

History will not forget the breaking of covenants and charters by the enemies of Iran, who resorted to aggression and invasion during the negotiations.

We will focus our efforts on reconstruction and compensating the victims by identifying strengths and weaknesses.

In this test that has been passed, we will continue the process of normalizing matters throughout the country.

I declare to the neighboring and regional countries that we firmly believe in coexistence and stability.

Regional Resistance Factions Applaud The Islamic Republic of Iran's Historic Victory Over The Zionist Entity.

The Ansarallah spokesperson Mohammed Abdul Salam in Yemen extended its warmest congratulations to the leadership and people of Iran. In a statement, the bureau declared that Iran's mighty and unprecedented strike has broken the barrier of fear and established new rules of engagement. He affirmed that the heroic response has healed the hearts of a billion Muslims and that Yemen stands firmly with the Islamic Republic of Iran in its sacred jihad of the True Promise 3 operation.

In a separate message, Mahdi al-Mashat, President of Yemen's Supreme Political Council, congratulated the Iranian leadership, stating, "We followed with great pride and joy the great and historic victory achieved by the Islamic Republic of Iran in its blessed military operation against the usurping zionist enemy entity. This decisive and strategic response has cooled the hearts of our Arab and Islamic nation."

The Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine (DFLP) celebrated the Iranian victory, declaring that the zionist entity and its allies now understand that the era of unopposed aggression has ended. The DFLP asserted that the "Axis of Resistance is more cohesive and stronger than ever" and that the strike has exposed the fragility of the enemy's security and military systems. The Front emphasized that this victory is a triumph for the Palestinian people and all who resist the zionist-American project.

Fatah Al-Intifada applauded the "historic and clear victory," stating that the blessed epic has confirmed that the era of defeats is over and the Axis of Resistance is a force to be reckoned with. The movement praised the operation for shattering the enemy's manufactured prestige and affirmed its unwavering commitment to the trench of resistance, which has restored the nation's dignity. "Glory to the martyrs, victory to the resistance, and shame and disgrace to the zionist entity and its helpers."

The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine – General Command (PFLP-GC) offered its congratulations to the Iranian leadership, military, and people. The PFLP-GC described the victory as a "qualitative and historic blow" that has altered the course of the conflict with the zionist enemy. The statement highlighted that the operation demonstrated Iran's advanced military capabilities and its readiness to defend its sovereignty and the oppressed peoples of the region, foretelling the inevitable liberation of Palestine.

The Syrian Social Nationalist Party (SSNP) saluted the Iranian leadership for its courageous and strategic decision to respond to the zionist aggression. The SSNP viewed the victory as a strategic turning point that strengthens the position of the Axis of resistance. The party emphasized that the strike has "confused the enemy and its supporters, proving that the language of force is the only language it understands," and called for a unified front to continue confronting the common enemy.

Senior Hamas leader Ahmed Abdul-Hadi declared that Iran has achieved a significant victory over "israel." He attributed this to Iran’s ability to thwart "israel's" objectives, instill fear through unprecedented missile strikes, and undermine its national security—especially following the Al-Aqsa Flood operation. Abdul-Hadi emphasized that "Iran was victorious because it won the political and moral battle that the enemy lost in its war of extermination in Gaza." He added that this victory could mark the beginning of a new phase of resistance, benefiting Palestine, Gaza, Lebanon, and all honorable resistance fighters.

Hezbollah:
—
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

"And may Allah grant you a mighty victory"

Hezbollah extends its highest congratulations and blessings to the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Imam Sayyed Ali Khamenei (may his shadow endure), to the President of the Islamic Republic of Iran, its government, its army, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, and the dear Iranian people for achieving this divine and resounding victory. This victory was embodied in the precise and painful strikes Iran delivered to the zionist enemy, shattering the illusion of its defensive systems and striking at the heart of its artificial entity in the operation “True Promise 3,” as well as the thunderous response to the American attack on its nuclear facilities in the special operation “Tidings of Victory.”

This marks the beginning of a new historical phase in confronting American hegemony and zionist arrogance in the region.

The heroic and direct response delivered a decisive message to the American administration, the zionist entity, and to all tyrants and arrogant powers: the era of domination and oppression over the peoples of the region is over. The Islamic Republic—through its wise leadership, courageous people, and valiant army and Guard—was not intimidated by bombing, threats, or intimidation. Nothing deterred them from firmly defending their sovereignty and rights. All bets on their weakness or retreat have failed and collapsed.

We in Hezbollah bless this decisive victory, achieved by the grace of God Almighty and the blood of the martyrs who rose in this treacherous aggression, and by the faith, sacrifice, and steadfastness of the Iranian people who stood confidently behind their wise leadership.

We reaffirm our unwavering and firm support for the Islamic Republic—its leadership and its people—and call on all the peoples of the [Muslim] nation to draw inspiration from this great victory by uniting and standing with truth in the face of the tyrants of this era, so that the nation may reclaim its dignity and honor. True strength lies in will and faith, which alone can defeat and repel them, whereas surrender or submission will only embolden our enemies and increase their control over our region.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Aragchi to Al-Araby Al-Jadeed:
—
Their simplistic assumption was that Iran would declare surrender as soon as America intervened, but when they saw that our response using the third generation of "Kheybarshekan" missiles was stronger and more decisive, they backed down from continuing the war and proposed a ceasefire through mediators.

We affirmed to all mediators that Iran will not return to the negotiating table with the United States, and we will not resume the diplomatic track unless the aggression stops.

The United States will not be able to use the territory of other countries as a safe haven to achieve its goals and destabilize the region.

Iran's strategic action against Udeid base falls within the right of self-defense.

[The effect of the aggression on the nuclear program] will be positive. It strengthens our will and makes us more determined and resolute.

It is certain that no one in Iran will give up this [nuclear] technology.

We have tried for many years to prove to the world that we are committed to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) and wish to work within its framework, but unfortunately, this treaty could not provide protection for us or for our nuclear program.

I imagine that our view of the nuclear program and the non-proliferation regime will witness changes whose direction I cannot now judge.

Our respect for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of these countries, including Qatar, is established and firm, and this action should not be interpreted or construed as aggression against them.

The United States' entry into the war was proof of "israel"s failure and the inability of this entity to stand firm.

If there is any violation of the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the Islamic Republic, the response will be in the same vein.

The resilience of our people has been excellent, and the level of cohesion between the people and the government is very hopeful.

Russia has taken strong and clear positions in condemning the American aggression and the aggression of the zionist entity.

I imagine that the rapprochement between Arab and Islamic public opinion and the Iranian people has occurred more than ever before, and this is one of the blessings of the events.

For years, some parties sought to intimidate the region from Iran and portray it as a danger and a threat, but today this fear has vanished, and the real enemy is known to all.

Iran's acceptance of the ceasefire was based on maintaining moral and normative superiority, in order to transform this approach and vision into a basis for a new policy founded on regional and Islamic values.

The reports prepared by the Agency [IAEA] have significantly contributed to the current situation, and we are not satisfied with the style of the IAEA's reports; we believe there are political motives behind them.

Our first goal of the diplomatic effort is to contribute to strengthening the country's security by exposing and condemning the aggressor before the world.

Resistance News Network: With 222 votes in favor, no votes against, and one abstention, Iran’s parliament overwhelmingly votes to suspend cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency.

The bill prohibits entry of IAEA inspectors unless security of facilities is guaranteed.

MP Salimi, a member of the presiding board, confirmed that both the general outline and specific articles of the bill were approved during the open session. He stated that no individual or institution has the right to cooperate with IAEA officials under the new law, and violators will face legal consequences.

Speaker Mohammed Bagher Ghalibaf said Iran’s peaceful nuclear program will now accelerate, stressing that "we won’t be fooled by any promises and are more prepared than ever to deliver a crushing response to any aggression." He added that the armed forces have "rendered the zionist regime helpless by accelerating its existential crisis."

The Atomic Energy Organization of Iran will suspend all cooperation with the IAEA until the security of nuclear sites is ensured.

Following the vote, MPs chanted Death to America and Death to "israel" inside the parliament chamber.

Commander-in-Chief of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, Major General Mohammad Pakpour:
—
If the enemy makes a mistake, we will respond forcefully, as we have done in the past 12 days.

We will not hesitate for a moment to defend the homeland, and all our forces are on high alert.

We have never trusted this brutal enemy, and we never will, and we will not hesitate for a moment to defend this homeland.

Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces Major General Abdolrahim Moussawi:
—
The resilient, insightful, and honorable nation of Iran:
Following the zionist regime’s aggressive action against the core of the Islamic Republic of Iran—an operation carried out with the knowledge, support, and backing of criminal America—your brave children in the armed forces mobilized all their capabilities and dealt painful and extensive responses to the zionist aggressor. Despite the widespread media and propaganda censorship, the visible damage across the occupied territories from south to north shows that key military, strategic, and research centers have been reduced to ashes.

As the officials of the Islamic Republic of Iran have repeatedly stated, Iran has never initiated any war and never will. However, if an aggression threatens the territorial integrity of the country, we will be the ones to decide its outcome and conclusion.

In this recent imposed war—despite the zionist regime being the visible spearhead of the attack against Iran—the United States entered the war directly. Western countries, especially NATO, fully provided intelligence, logistical, and operational support to the aggressor.

Nevertheless, the Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran, relying on indigenous military capability and with full popular support, halted the enemy’s war machine by inflicting heavy damage.

The multilayered air defense systems in the occupied territories—once regarded as impenetrable in the eyes of global public opinion—proved defenseless against Iran’s powerful ballistic missiles and drones. Throughout the entire conflict, residents of the occupied territories found no safe place, not even in shelters.

The U.S.’s direct military assault on Iran’s nuclear facilities was a desperate attempt to save the zionist regime from Iran’s missile and drone attacks. But the resolute response of Iran’s armed forces in targeting the U.S. Al-Udeid base proved that no cowardly action can deter the steadfast will of the Iranian nation and its armed forces in confronting aggression. As a result, U.S. officials began pleading through certain regional countries and effectively surrendered to the will of the Islamic Republic of Iran.

In conclusion, while sincerely thanking the heroic people of Iran for their unwavering and broad support of their brave children in the armed forces, we once again warn the zionist enemy and its backers:
We are closely monitoring all your movements, and if any strategic miscalculation is repeated, we will cast the aggressors into the black holes of history.

Iranian Ministry of Security:
—
The front of Global Arrogance, led by the Great Satan America, has added another black and shameful page to its record full of oppression, terrorism, and villainy, by unleashing its rabid zionist dog and its agent in the region.

This intelligence jihad, with God's permission and full power, will continue until the realization of the strategy of 'the failure, collapse, and annihilation of the zionist entity.

The unknown soldiers of this Islamic homeland are closely monitoring your war deceptions, and will open the gates of hell upon you as soon as you make another mistake or miscalculation.

The discovery, identification, striking, and destruction of infiltrating elements, agents, and important mercenaries belonging to sinister foreign espionage networks, especially the officers and spies of the CIA, Mossad, and MI6, have been and remain among the Ministry's priorities.

Be wary of falling into the traps of media and cognitive warfare, the war of narratives, and false suggestions by the satanic propaganda apparatus of America and the zionist entity.

Glory and the salutations of God be upon the people of Islamic Iran who, with their steadfastness humiliated America and its illegitimate child, the zionist entity.

In this field, the great intelligence community and the Ministry of Security... have offered great and silent martyrs and sacrifices... for the glory of Islam, the people, the revolution, and the country.

Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps:
The final statement

In response to the call of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces and with the support of the Iranian nation, with power and wisdom to punish the aggressors, "True Promise 3" operations were designed in 22 heavy, continuous, and multi-layered waves, targeting a diverse and numerous bank of enemy military objectives in the occupied lands of Al-Quds. They proved once again that the brave soldiers of the homeland will not leave any aggressor's transgression unanswered.

The Iranian nation, in continuation of the values of the 8-year Sacred Defense and in a victorious historical struggle, displayed its national dignity, resilient spirit, and internal cohesion to the world. The result of all this empathy and struggle was the manifestation of a strong Iran and a nullification of the calculations of the global arrogant powers against the Iranian nation and the sacred system of the Islamic Republic of Iran.

The tranquility, wisdom, and strength of the Supreme Leader of the Revolution from the first day of the imposed war to form a national mobilization in the fight against the aggressors was another growing and stabilizing asset that reminded us all of the distinguished role of the Imamate in the unity of the Islamic system.

Strengthening national unity and increasing social capital, increasing national trust in the armed forces, strengthening the self-confidence of the armed forces, identifying and neutralizing internal sabotage networks, increasing the prestige and popularity of Iran in the hearts of the Islamic Ummah, gaining international support for the righteousness of the Islamic Republic and the aggression of the zionist army, the collapse of the ignorant and malicious idea of regime change in Iran, preserving the foundations and components of the power of the nuclear program, preserving the defense and missile infrastructure, the collapse of the multi-layered and expensive legend of the enemy's defense, the development of the regime's survival crisis in the occupied territories, the nullification of the invincibility of the zionist army, and injecting hope into the oppressed nations of the world to continue confronting the arrogant powers have been the most important achievements and signs of the imposition of the will of the Iranian nation and the armed forces up to this stage of punishing the aggressors and a sign of the helplessness of the zionist terrorist murderers and their bloodthirsty supporters.

The entry of the criminal and already defeated American army into the battlefield to save the helpless soldiers of the zionist army also could not change the equations of the battlefield and Iran's upper hand, and with Iran's retaliatory missile attack on the American Al-Udeid base in Qatar in the form of "Tidings of Victory" operation, the message of Iran's authority was once again made clear to them.

It is worth mentioning that the initiator of the imposed war was the zionist terrorist army, but its end was written by the zealous and brave children of the nation in the armed forces, especially the IRGC Aerospace Force, in the twenty-second wave of "True Promise 3" operation, and their final blow was so deadly that the "enemy's howl for a ceasefire" was raised from the throat of the brutal zionist regime and the delusional US president.

Once again, with the help of Allah Almighty, in the presence of the heroic nation of Iran and the esteemed families of the martyrs, we pledge that we will not rest for a moment in pursuing the strategic and fixed goals of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps: the withdrawal of the occupying America from the region and the destruction of the child-killing zionist regime.

Sayyed Ali Khamenei, in his third speech of True Promise 3, today June 26th, 2025 (1/2):
—
Greetings and abundant salutations to the dear and great nation of Iran. First, I commemorate the precious martyrs of recent events: the martyred commanders and martyred scientists who were truly valuable for the Islamic Republic and served it, and today, before Allah, they are receiving the reward for their outstanding services, Allah willing.

I find it necessary to congratulate the great nation of Iran. I offer several congratulations to the nation: One is the congratulations for the victory over the illegitimate zionist regime. The zionist regime, with all its fanfare and claims, was almost brought to its knees and crushed under the blows of the Islamic Republic. The thought that such blows could be inflicted on the regime by the Islamic Republic did not cross their minds or imagination, yet it happened. We thank God who helped our armed forces; they were able to penetrate their multi-layered, advanced defenses and level many of their urban and military areas with their own missiles and a powerful assault of their advanced weaponry! This is one of the greatest divine blessings; it shows that the zionist regime must know that aggression against the Islamic Republic of Iran will be costly for them, it will create heavy costs for them. And by the grace of Allah, this happened; its honor belongs to our armed forces and our dear people who created, trained, supported, and empowered these armed forces from within themselves to accomplish such a great task.

The second congratulations relates to the victory of our dear Iran over the American regime. The American regime entered a direct war because it felt that if it did not, the zionist regime would be completely annihilated. It entered the war to save it, but it gained nothing from this war. They attacked our nuclear centers—which, of course, this is independently subject to criminal prosecution in international courts—but they could not do anything significant. The American President, in describing what happened, made an unusual exaggeration; it became clear that he needed this exaggeration; anyone who heard those words understood that there was another truth hidden beneath the surface of these words. They could not do anything, they could not achieve their objective, and they are exaggerating to cover up and conceal the truth. Here too, the Islamic Republic was victorious, and in return, the Islamic Republic delivered a hard slap to America's face; it attacked one of America's important bases in the region, Al-Udeid base, and inflicted damage. Those who had exaggerated in that matter tried to downplay this one, saying nothing happened, while a big event had occurred. The fact that the Islamic Republic has access to important American centers in the region and can act against them whenever it deems necessary is not a small incident; it is a big incident, and in the future, this incident can be repeated; in case of aggression, the cost to the enemy and the aggressor will certainly be high.

Sayyed Ali Khamenei, in his third speech of True Promise 3, today June 26th, 2025 (2/2):
—
The third congratulations is the congratulations for the extraordinary unity and unanimity of the Iranian nation. By the grace of God, a nation of approximately ninety million people stood united, with one voice, shoulder to shoulder, side by side, without any difference in their demands and expressed objectives, they chanted slogans, spoke out, supported the actions of the armed forces, and it will remain so hereafter. The Iranian nation showed its magnanimity, its prominent and distinguished character in this matter, and showed that when necessary, one voice will be heard from this nation, and by the grace of Allah, this happened.

The point I want to make as a fundamental aspect of my remarks is that the American President said in one of his statements and remarks that Iran must surrender. "Surrender!" It's no longer about enrichment, it's not about the nuclear industry, it's about Iran's surrender.

Of course, this statement is too big for the American President's mouth. The magnificent Iran, Iran with this history, Iran with this culture, Iran with this iron national will, the word "surrender" or such a country is a mockery to those who know the Iranian nation. However, his statement revealed a truth; Americans have been in conflict with Islamic Iran since the beginning of the revolution, grappling with it, and each time they have an excuse: sometimes it's human rights, sometimes it's defense of democracy, sometimes it's women's rights, sometimes it's enrichment, sometimes it's the core nuclear issue, sometimes it's the issue of missile manufacturing; they bring various excuses, but the essence of the matter is only one thing, and that is "Iran's surrender."

The previous ones did not say this, because it is unacceptable; it is unacceptable in any human logic to tell a nation to come and surrender, so they hid it under other titles. This person revealed that truth, showed and made it clear that Americans are only satisfied with Iran's surrender and nothing less. And this is an important point! The Iranian nation should know that this is the reason for the confrontation with America, and Americans harbor this great insult to the Iranian nation, and such an event will never happen; it will never happen.

The Iranian nation is a great nation, Iran is a strong and vast country, Iran has an ancient civilization; our cultural and civilizational wealth is hundreds of times greater than America and the like. For someone to expect Iran to surrender to another country, this is one of those absurd and wrong statements that will certainly be a source of ridicule for wise and knowledgeable people. The Iranian nation is dear and will remain dear, it is victorious and will remain victorious by divine grace. And we hope that Almighty Allah will always preserve this nation with dignity and honor under the shadow of His grace, elevate the ranks of the great Imam, and make Imam Mahdi (may our souls be sacrificed for him) pleased with this nation, and that his help will be the supporter of this nation.

Palestinian Factions Mourn the Martyrdom of Major General Saeed Izadi (Hajj Ramadan), the head of the Palestine file in the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps.

Hamas mourned one of the foremost pillars of support for the Palestinian resistance in all its fields. He worked night and day to advance the Palestinian cause and made distinguished efforts to strengthen the capabilities of the Palestinian people and their resistance against the zionist enemy. Hamas affirmed that the blood of this great commander, alongside the martyrs of the Al-Aqsa Flood, will remain the fuel for the march of resistance until victory and liberation.

The Qassam Brigades eulogized the great martyr, the direct official responsible for the relationship with the Palestinian resistance leadership, leaving "great fingerprints" on its development. "The enemy remains delusional in believing it can extinguish the spirit of resistance by assassinating its leaders." "This constellation of leading martyrs from across the nation embodies a unity that has plunged the zionist entity into an autumn that will inevitably be followed by the nation's spring."

PIJ mourned Hajj Ramadan as a true symbol of resistance who spent his life advancing the Palestinian cause with sharp strategic vision and steadfast determination. He made noble and great contributions in providing every support to the resistance in Palestine and the region over many years. PIJ affirmed its absolute confidence that the criminal zionist enemy, the heir of Nazism and fascism, will pay the price for its ongoing crimes and targeting of great leaders.

The Abu Ali Mustafa Brigades hailed him as the "bearer of the banner of Palestine," who dedicated his life to serving the resistance project and developing its capabilities on all levels. He was a "man of the shadows and the field," who believed supporting Palestine was an ideological, revolutionary, and strategic duty, and was directly responsible for training generations of Palestinian fighters. Palestine and its resistance will not forget this great leader, whose soul was attached to Al-Quds and whose efforts were directed toward dismantling the zionist entity.

The Nasser Salah al-Din Brigades extolled the legendary leader who, for over 30 years, dedicated his life and efforts to supporting and developing the resistance in Palestine, providing it with all necessary expertise and capabilities. They consider that with his martyrdom, Palestine has lost a legendary commander who contributed significantly to shattering the myth of the invincible zionist force. His loss is immense, but the Iranian nation is "fertile in its ability to produce leaders who can carry the banner."

Mujahideen Movement emphasized that the ascension of great figures in the battle to defend Al-Quds solidifies the meaning of unity within the nation and confirms the correctness of the path and the unity of destiny. His martyrdom alongside his brothers, the martyrs of Palestine, proves that the policy of assassinations will not break the resistance's strength or restore zionist prestige and deterrence as it continues to receive blows despite unlimited American support.

Ahrar Movement & Ansar Brigades: The movement mourned the leader to whom they owe a "great favor" for his support of the resistance project in Palestine. His backing was pivotal to its steadfastness, insistence, and progress on the path to liberation and Al-Quds. They pledged that his blood will not be in vain and that they will remain loyal to his path and his sacrifice.

In a joint statement, the factions collectively praised the pivotal and historic role of the great martyr, who stood firmly by the Palestinian people and their resistance for decades. His significant contributions constituted a cornerstone in the trajectory of the conflict with the zionist enemy, culminating in Al-Aqsa Flood. The factions affirmed that this assassination, following the major victory achieved by the Iranian armed forces, only proves that the enemy could not break the will of the victorious Iranian people.

Abu Jamal, spokesperson for the Martyr Abu Ali Mustafa Brigades:
—
In a treacherous zionist aggression, the senior commander in the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, Saeed Izadi—“Hajj Ramadan”—was martyred on the road to Al-Quds.

He was never absent from our battlefields; his presence was as vital as blood in the vein. He led with awareness and steadfastness, instilling in us the conviction that Palestine is not alone.

He was a key supporter in developing the capabilities of the resistance, contributing to delivering the necessary and qualitative support, and facilitating the training of specialized resistance teams in Tehran.

He ascended in body, but his spirit remains in the trenches—inspiring the fighters and lighting the path toward freedom and return.

The martyr Hajj Ramadan was a partner in the blood and the trench.
He lived for Palestine—as a rifle and as a stance. He gave it his mind, his weapon, and his prayers. He was a constant link between the frontlines and the channels of support.

Our cause was his compass. Our resistance was his daily concern. He departed in body, but his path remains a fire blazing in the enemy’s chest.

Martyr Hajj Ramadan believed that confronting the zionist project is a collective responsibility for all the free people of the nation—and that the liberation of Palestine is not partial, but must be seized through blood and unity.

He built bridges between Gaza and Tehran, the West Bank and Beirut, and wove the threads of resistance from the heart of the siege to the frontlines. He was committed to preparing cadres, sharing expertise, and facilitating specialized training—so that every fighter would have a role in the battle for liberation.

The assassination of this valiant commander will not extinguish a flame—it will ignite a hundred fires in the heart of the enemy.
The blood of Hajj Ramadan is a debt upon our shoulders, and we vow to press forward on the path of resistance until this usurping entity is dismantled and our land is liberated—from the sea to the river.

To our steadfast people… to the resilient, brotherly Iranian people… to all the free people of the world…
We feel the pain of losing great and influential leaders, but we firmly believe that their pure blood fuels this path. A pledge to the blood of our people’s martyrs, to their leaders, to the martyr commander Hajj Ramadan, and to all the martyrs: we will carry on what they began—until Palestine returns, free and united.

We are in a long battle… but we are the children of fire, the heirs of the rifle, and the grandchildren of Al-Quds.

We mourn to the masses of our nation and to all the free people of the world the passing of the great Islamic jihadist leader and martyr of Palestine, Major General Mohammad Saeed Izadi — “Hajj Ramadan”, head of the Palestine file in Al-Quds Force of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, who ascended as a martyr on the path to Al-Quds and Palestine during the brutal aggression against the Islamic Republic of Iran.

The great martyr of Palestine, Hajj Ramadan, had been responsible for the close relationship with the Palestinian resistance since 1992. This sincere and steadfast relationship played a pivotal role in supporting and empowering the Palestinian people and their resistance, contributing significantly to the development of military, security, scientific, strategic, and operational thought and practice across the Palestinian military factions in Gaza and throughout Palestine.

The martyred commander Hajj Ramadan’s contributions and fingerprints remain clearly visible and impactful in every rocket, explosive device, bullet, and tunnel that has humiliated and struck fear into the enemy.

The great leader and martyr, Hajj Ramadan, supervised thousands of training courses across all military, security, and tactical fields, and was instrumental in the qualitative military advancement of the resistance factions in Palestine. His efforts enabled them to confront the zionist military and intelligence apparatus and deliver shameful defeats to them in every battle waged by the Palestinian people and their resistance — crushing the arrogance and image of invincibility of the zionist entity.

Palestine and its loyal people will deeply miss this inspiring commander who was wholly devoted to supplying the resistance and its institutions with every means of strength. Our people will never forget his stances and impactful contributions, which will forever testify to the loyalty and nobility of the Iranian people and their leadership — foremost among them, the leader Hajj Ramadan.

We extend our heartfelt condolences and congratulations on the martyrdom of this unique and inspiring commander — the beloved of Palestine and its martyr — Hajj Ramadan. We ask Allah to reward his great efforts and sacrifices in the balance of his good deeds, to grant him the highest level of Paradise, and to envelop him in His vast mercy.

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

“And do not say of those who are killed in the way of Allah, ‘They are dead.’ Rather, they are alive, but you perceive it not.”

Hezbollah extends its warmest condolences and highest expressions of blessing to His Eminence, the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Imam Sayyid Ali Khamenei (may his shadow endure), to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, and to the dear Iranian people, on the martyrdom of the great commander, Major General Mohammad Saeed Izadi (Hajj Ramadan), the official responsible for the Palestine and Al-Quds file in our region. His martyrdom is a badge of honor on the path to Jerusalem and Palestine, and a herald of victory, Allah willing.

We knew the martyred General Izadi as a raised banner for Palestine and Al-Quds. He lived among us for decades as a fighter, supporter, and developer, dedicating all his energy and capabilities to serving the Palestinian resistance. Through his continuous efforts and deep faith, he was able to bring about a great revival and qualitative advancement in the methods of resistance work, its capabilities, manufacturing, and strategies.

The martyred general was an example of tireless movement. Through his broad relationships with various resistance movements and entities in the region, he formed an effective and influential communication network. He frequently held strategic and important meetings aimed at exchanging expertise and embedding it in the service of the cause of Palestine and its liberation.

The martyred General Izadi attained the highest badge of martyrdom in the path of Almighty Allah. He was the best representative of the Islamic Republic of Iran, its revolution, and its Guards. Through his jihad and blessed journey, he expressed the courageous and wise vision of the great Islamic Revolution, which was nourished by the luminous spirit of Imam Khomeini (may Allah sanctify his secret).

From the school of Imam Hussein (peace be upon him), we learned that martyrdom is life for the nation, and that martyrs are its guiding lights. So glad tidings to you, O dweller of the gardens of eternity. We ask Almighty Allah for victory and success for the liberation journey on the path of Palestine, at the hands of the honorable resistance in Palestine and the region, and alongside the steadfast, sacrificing, and brave people of Palestine.

1 Muharram 1447 AH

Hezbollah shared a speech by the Head of the Executive Council, Sheikh Ali Daamoush, during the Friday sermon:
—
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

The Head of the Executive Council in Hezbollah, Sheikh Ali Daamoush, stressed that today we are creating our own Karbala with a criminal and murderous zionist enemy who moves with its aggression and crimes from place to place and from one country to another. Its latest stop was Iran, against which it launched a treacherous and brutal aggression with direct American participation, aiming to destroy the nuclear project, disable the missile capabilities, destabilize the regime, and ultimately drag Iran into unconditional surrender.

He said during the Friday sermon that in this war, they used methods of deceit, trickery, misinformation, all their military capabilities and technological means, and relied on allies and internal agents to achieve their goals. But they failed. They could not end the nuclear project, nor disable the missile power, nor destabilize the regime, nor drag Iran into submission and surrender. Instead, Iran emerged more cohesive, stronger in determination, and victorious through its steadfastness, resilience, and missile capabilities.

He pointed out that all American and “israeli” attempts to hide the facts, exaggerate achievements, and obscure the true evaluation of the results of the aggression will not diminish Iran’s victory nor cover up the American and “israeli” failure in this war.

He considered that Iran has proven to be a regional power too great to be broken and too noble to surrender, because surrender is the trait of cowards, the weak, and those without dignity—not the trait of the honorable and the brave. And Iran, under the leadership of the Supreme Leader Ayatollah Imam Sayyid Ali Khamenei (may his shadow endure), is the land of the honorable, the strong, and the courageous, and it cannot submit to the will of tyrants and arrogant powers no matter the sacrifices.

He affirmed that Iran, with all its history, determination, resilience, cohesion, and national dignity, cannot surrender. He considered Iran’s victory in this battle to be a victory for the Palestinian cause and for all resistance movements in the region. The “israelis,” the Americans, and their Western allies must understand that their arrogance, haughtiness, and aggression will not lead to the success of their project, but rather will inflame the spirit of resistance among the region’s peoples even more. Their project to subjugate Iran and eliminate the resistance movements in the region is an unattainable dream—mere illusions and fantasies.

He pointed out that some in Lebanon, who lack national, moral, and human sensibility, have placed themselves on the side of the enemies and among the ranks of the aggressors, betting that the zionist-American aggression against the Islamic Republic would break and subjugate Iran and lead to favorable outcomes in Lebanon. But they were shocked when this did not happen, and all their calculations and bets failed—just as their bets failed that the “israeli” war on Hezbollah would crush and eliminate it. They were shocked again when that did not happen, and their hopes were disappointed.

He concluded by saying: These people must learn from the lessons of the past and not build their bets on false and failed illusions, because if they continue in this way, they will sooner or later discover that they are outside reality and outside history.

Resistance News Network: Farewell to the martyred commanders

Scenes from the funeral ceremony of martyred commanders marked by a massive public turnout in Tehran.

The Islamic Jihad Movement spokesperson, Mohammed Al-Haj Musa in an interview to Al-Mayadeen:
—
After this international coalition—and unfortunately the Arab participation in it against the Palestinian cause and against this [Muslim] nation—we are more certain than ever of the necessity of unity.

Accordingly, we say to everyone: there is no longer any gray area. You are either with the truth and with the Axis that supports Palestine and wants Al-Quds to remain Palestinian, Islamic, and Arab—or you are with the axis that wants Al-Quds to become “Yerushalayim” and seeks to fragment the region and solidify American-zionist domination over it.

Yes, I confirm that to you—by the hour. [There is coordination among the parties of the Axis]. The relationship among the various components of this Axis is strategic, not tactical, at all levels. There is coordination at every level—political, military—and even now at the social level. This resistance, which has made all these sacrifices, understands that unity is a duty, not a choice.

Therefore, coordination exists among all the factions of the Axis of Resistance: in Gaza, in all of Palestine, in Lebanon, in Yemen, in Iraq, in the Islamic Republic of Iran. And we call on all the free people of this [Muslim] nation—those who have come to understand the reality—to be part of this, even if only on the media, social, or grassroots level, through support, activities, and demonstrations.

Everyone must bear this responsibility. This is everyone’s cause.
And the genocide in Gaza is still ongoing.
This is the central point.

Some speak as if what is happening in Iran is disconnected from what is happening in Gaza.
We say that even during the war—and the war in Iran was for Gaza, for Palestine.

The occupation would not have struck Iran and committed these crimes because of what they try to claim is “interference.”
Rather, Iran is making all these sacrifices in order to support the Palestinian cause and to say “No” to the United States of America.

This unity—by God’s will—will grow firmer and more deeply rooted with each passing day.
