Iranian Revolutionary Guards says it targeted Israeli energy facilities in retaliatory strikes

ISTANBUL

Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) on Sunday said it targeted Israeli fighter jet fuel production facilities and energy supply centers in response to recent Israeli attacks.

The IRGC said it targeted Israeli energy infrastructure using swarms of drones and missiles.

Iranian air defense systems successfully intercepted and destroyed three cruise missiles, 10 drones and dozens of small aircraft from Israeli forces in conflict zones, it added.

It said Iranian attacks would continue "more severely and extensively" if Israeli attacks persist.

The strikes follow Friday's Israeli attacks on Iranian nuclear and missile facilities that killed military commanders and scientists, prompting Iranian ballistic missile retaliation against Israeli targets.
