WATCH: Iran Launches Advanced Next-Generation Missiles in Renewed Offensive
Iran has initiated the latest phase of Operation True Promise III, launching an array of new-generation missiles that made direct impacts in the occupied territories.
The 21st phase commenced at approximately 12:00 PM local time on Monday. Informed sources indicate that a significant number of new-generation missiles were deployed in the day’s retaliatory operation.
According to sources, Monday’s operation involved the deployment of Kheibar Shekan, Emad, Qadr, and Fattah-1 missiles, targeting significant Israeli military installations across the occupied territories, including locations in Safed, Lachish, Ashkelon, Ashdod, and Beit She’an.
Reports indicate that missiles have directly targeted the Ashdod power plant, leading to extensive power outages across the occupied territories.
Reports from certain segments of the Israeli media indicate extensive damage to streets across multiple cities, attributed to the intense blast waves that forced residents to retreat to underground shelters. The event was marked by the moment an Iranian missile struck Ashdod.
For the first time, air raid sirens resonated throughout the occupied territories for a duration of 35 minutes, according to reports. This was indicative of an extensive barrage of Iranian missiles deployed on Monday.
In a recent development, the Israeli multi-tier air defense systems were unable to successfully intercept new-generation Iranian missiles, allowing them to reach their intended targets within the disputed territories.
In response to ongoing Israeli military actions targeting Iran, operations have been initiated, leading to the loss of over 400 lives since June 13. Among those affected are high-ranking military officials, nuclear scientists, academics, athletes, and students.
In a series of coordinated assaults, Iranian armed forces executed 21 missile and drone attacks targeting the occupied regions under Operation True Promise III, dealing significant damage to the regime’s military intelligence assets. Amidst the strikes, Israeli Cabinet Minister Idit Silman sought refuge in a shelter.

On Sunday, the Kheibar Shekan ballistic missile, featuring multiple warheads, was deployed for the first time as part of the 20th phase of Operation True Promise III.
A significant development unfolded as the twentieth wave emerged mere hours after the United States reported conducting strikes on three Iranian nuclear sites located in Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan.
The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) announced that it launched a total of 40 missiles, utilizing both solid and liquid fuel types, targeting strategic locations within the occupied Palestinian territories on Sunday.
The operation marked the debut deployment of the third-generation Kheibar Shekan multi-warhead ballistic missile by the IRGC Aerospace Force. According to the statement, new and innovative tactics were implemented to enhance the missile’s precision, destructive capabilities, and overall effectiveness.
