The IRGC Public Relations Department announced that the naval forces launched a "heavy" offensive against enemy positions.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

A container ship belonging to the Israeli regime, named Express Halfong, was struck by ballistic missiles in the middle waters of the Persian Gulf, according to the statement.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

In a second combined operation, it added, a hideout of US Marines along the coast of the United Arab Emirates, where they had taken cover outside military bases fearing Iran's destructive missiles, was precisely targeted and destroyed by explosive drones.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

The IRGC Navy also destroyed a counter-drone system belonging to the US Fifth Fleet that had been deployed outside its base near Manama airport in Bahrain, said the statement, adding that additionally, two advanced early warning radars at the "Jaber al-Ahmad" US terrorist base in Kuwait were hit by drones.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

The IRGC statement reiterated that the Strait of Hormuz is fully and firmly under the control of its forces.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

"The smallest movement of enemies will be met with missile and drone strikes," the statement warned.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

The 88th wave of Operation True Promise 4 is the latest in a series of near-daily Iranian retaliatory strikes since the United States and Israel launched an unprovoked war of aggression against Iran on February 28.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

Since then, Iran’s armed forces have responded with waves of missile and drone operations targeting US military bases across West Asia and Israeli positions in the occupied territories.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

The IRGC has defended these operations as legitimate self-defense under international law.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

In recent days, the scale and precision of Iranian strikes have intensified.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

On Monday, the IRGC executed the 87th wave of Operation True Promise 4, striking US command centers and military installations across the region in a tribute to Rear Admiral Alireza Tangsiri, the IRGC Navy commander who was martyred while reinforcing Iran’s coastal defenses.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

That operation destroyed a US command and control center near Al Minhad Air Base in the UAE, where more than 200 American commanders and officers were present, as well as the hideout of US Fifth Fleet commanders in Bahrain.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

The IRGC has also expanded its targets to include economic infrastructure linked to US military supply chains.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

On March 28, in a coordinated missile and drone operation, Iran struck the Emirates Aluminum (EMAL) plant in the UAE, the world’s longest aluminum production line, and the Aluminum Bahrain (ALBA) plant, which operates with American investment and plays a significant role in supplying US military industries.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

The attack came in response to the US-Israeli attacks on Iran's industries, including against two main steel producers in Isfahan and Khuzestan provinces.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n
