Iran has launched the 54th wave of attacks in its ongoing military campaign, marking a major escalation in the conflict with Israel and the United States.
The latest strikes reportedly include the first deployment of the Sejjil ballistic missile, a solid-fuel, two-stage medium-range system capable of carrying up to 1,000 kg warheads across 2,000–2,500 km.
Analysts say its rapid launch capability reduces warning time for targets and extends Iran’s reach across the Middle East, including Israel, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and several U.S. military bases. The operation is described by the IRGC as retaliation for recent strikes on civilian workers.
