Iran’s IRGC reports retaliatory strike on U.S., Isreal base

Dozens of retaliatory strikes targeting U.S. and Israeli positions have been launched in response to the killing of Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said on Sunday.

The Tasnim news agency, a semi-official news outlet linked to the IRGC, reported that 27 U.S. bases in the region, as well as Israel’s army headquarters and an arms complex in Tel Aviv had been targeted.

The reports could not be independently verified.

Earlier on Sunday, the IRGC vowed revenge for the death of Khamenei.

“The killers of the Imam of the nation will not escape severe, decisive, and deterrent punishment,” the elite force said in a statement on Sunday carried by Lebanon’s Hezbollah militia.

Israel experienced repeated rocket alerts early on Sunday.
