Israeli strikes in central Iran kill 9 Revolutionary Guards, say media

At least nine members of the Revolutionary Guards were killed today, in Israeli attacks on central Iran, local media report.

“Following the aggression of the barbaric Zionist regime and its mercenaries against two military centers in Yazd city, seven Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps personnel and two conscripts were martyred,” the Tasnim news agency reports, quoting an IRGC statement.

Others were injured in the attack, it adds. The Fars news agency had earlier said Israeli strikes targeted two military sites in Yazd.

The IDF said earlier today that it targeted an Iranian ballistic missile facility in the Yazd area, where it says Iran stored long-range Khorramshahr missiles.
