- Command & Control: Destruction of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) headquarters in Tehran.

- Leadership Vacuum: Following the confirmed deaths of the Supreme Leader and key military advisors, the Iranian defense structure is reportedly operating under a fractured “Interim Leadership Council.”
The Iranian Counter-Offensive
Iran has responded by activating its full “Axis of Resistance” and launching Operation True Promise IV, which aims to maximize regional pain for U.S. allies:
- Gulf Under Fire: Missile barrages have hit energy infrastructure in the UAE and Saudi Arabia, signaling that no regional partner is “off-limits.”
- The Hormuz Chokehold: By mining and patrolling the Strait of Hormuz, Iran has effectively throttled 20% of the world’s oil supply, sending global markets into a tailspin.
- Targeting U.S. Bases: Coordinated drone swarms have targeted American installations in Kuwait and Qatar, resulting in confirmed U.S. casualties.
