Iranian ballistic missiles targeted Israeli Military Intelligence Unit 8200 at the Glilot base near Tel Aviv on 17 June, Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced – as part of the ninth phase of Operation True Promise 3.
“In the early hours of today, Tuesday, 17 June, IRGC Aerospace Force fighters, in an impact-oriented operation, despite the presence of highly advanced defense systems, struck the Zionist regime’s military intelligence center known as Aman and the center for planning terror operations and evils of the Zionist regime (Mossad) in Tel Aviv, and this center is currently burning,” the IRGC said in a statement.
Several impacts were made in the Herzliya area in the Tel Aviv district. A bus was set ablaze and an eight-story building was damaged, according to Hebrew news site Ynet.
Video footage captured the moment several missiles impacted the area, causing large explosions.
Israeli media reported that military censorship has imposed a blackout on the location impacted by Iranian missiles in the Glilot area, a suburb of Tel Aviv previously targeted by Hezbollah.
The Glilot area houses the headquarters of Mossad, as well as several other key Israeli intelligence units, including Unit 8200 – also referred to as Aman.
Hebrew reports also said a warehouse or logistical facility used by Unit 8200 was targeted.
Online users geolocated the impact sites in the Glilot area using satellite imagery and visual markers from footage taken shortly after the strikes. The coordinates indicate that multiple missiles landed in close proximity to the suspected Mossad facilities, but not directly on them.
Israel has imposed strict media censorship, prohibiting the publication of information and footage relating to Iranian ballistic missile impact sites.
The IRGC announced on 16 June that it has launched the ninth phase of Operation True Promise 3 in response to a brutal US-backed war launched by Israel against Iran on 13 June.
It said it is planning to intensify its strikes against Israel in the coming hours.
Recent ballistic missile attacks on Israel have caused unprecedented destruction across Tel Aviv and Haifa. Dozens have been killed and hundreds injured.
Iranian drones have also continuously infiltrated Israeli airspace over the past several hours.
Meanwhile, Israel has continued to launch deadly attacks on Iran. Over 224 Iranians have been killed, including at least 45 women and children.
Thick smoke was seen rising over the northwestern Iranian city of Tabriz following an explosion at approximately 8:45 am local time, according to Mehr news agency.
The outlet shared video footage of the incident on its Telegram channel, but no further details have been released as of yet.
On Monday, the Israeli air force bombed the headquarters of the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB) corporation, the country’s national broadcaster, during a live broadcast.
